Advanced Presentation Skills

Catalog description

As a technical contributor or expert, engineering researchers and professionals at all levels are called on frequently to give presentations (proposals, technical updates, progress reporting, client pitches, engineering advancements/information, and more). However, many presenters have not had specific training about planning, preparing, honing, executing, documenting, and archiving their presentation work. This course addresses those skills at an advanced level, addressing students’ MEng research areas. As well, issues of teamwork, AI, cross-cultural communication, institutional need, audience assessment, and personal presence will be covered. Students will give both individual and team talks.
