Task 3: The importance of communication skills for engineers

29 August 2022

“Communication skills are an essential component in the education of

engineering students to facilitate not just students’ education but also to prepare

them for their future careers.”

Marc Riemer, Faculty of Engineering, Monash University (2007)

According to Marc Riemer, Faculty of Engineering, Monash University (2007), communication skills for engineering students are important because it enables the students to prepare for their careers.

Formal Self-Introduction Letter

Dear Prof Brad, I would like to take this chance to introduce myself, I am Meng Kiat, but all of my friends call me Meng for short. I graduated from Nanyang Polytechnic in the year 2020, having completed the diploma in aerospace and aeronautical technology as my course of study. I have had an interest in the world of aerospace since I was a kid back in primary school. I got fascinated by aircrafts and the big engines that run them when my dad brought me to Changi beach to watch aeroplanes fly over our heads at the jetty. I decided to take up mechanical engineering at SIT as I saw it as an opportunity to study a broader and wider range of subjects and topics related to engineering, as aerospace engineering is quite a niche field. Mechanical engineering is a platform for me to expand my knowledge as an engineer in different fields as there are a couple of specialties for us to get elected in. However, I am still working towards being an aerospace engineer in the future as my career. ...

Design Summary Draft 1: Lithium-Ion Batteries

  The article “How an accidental discovery made this year could change the world”, The Future (April 2022) explains how the newfound Lithium-Sulphur (Li-S) powered battery could be implemented and change the way we live our lives. Lithium-Ion (Li-ion) batteries have always been the go to choice for a wide range of applications, however, the use of Li-S batteries could end up being revolutionary due to its increase in battery lifecycle, as well as being more environmentally friendly to mass produce. Weighing approximately 60% less than Li-ion batteries, and having twice the lifespan, going fully electric in commercial transportation seems feasible. In addition, Earth being lithium and sulphur rich makes mining resources for lithium-sulphur batteries more eco friendly. Engineers and scientists at the University of Drexel, California (USA), believe that Li-S batteries have the potential to revolutionise the way we live, compared to their Li-ion counterparts, and these are some of the ...
