  Unit description :

  This unit provides students with an introduction to the key skills necessary to undertake engineering studies, including: communication, researching, critical analysis, problem solving, academic writing, team work, reflection and referencing via the Harvard Referencing Style. Furthermore, this course will introduce students to fundamental engineering practices including the work environment, professional recognition and the requirements for ongoing professional development. Students will continue to build and develop these skills as they progress through other units of the Civil Engineering course.
