Importance of communication in Engineering.
Engineering discipline is a field that requires its individuals to be equipped with advanced scientific and technical knowledge. The main aim is to enable them to carry out their primary role which is the application of science and mathematics to come up with solutions in the form of designs that will solve present daily challenges faced by the masses. Therefore the craft of coming up with such ground breaking solutions and actually making them a success require thorough and effective communication skills. This essay will examine the importance of communication in general in the engineering field, the importance of technical communication and the effects of poor technical communication.
According to (Louw & du Plooy-Cilliers, 2016)“communication is a functional, dynamic, and transactional process where two or more individuals deliberately try to create and share meaning by sending and interpreting verbal and non-verbal messages.” Given the complex engineering field where engineers find themselves not only working with other engineering colleagues but also individuals from other fields, it becomes imperative for the engineers to have effective communication skills. In engineering organizations effective communication afford employees the chance to equally and effectively voice out their ideas and thoughts pertaining certain internal or external organizational issues. Hence employees are bound to feel that their opinions matter

The same virtues that Aristotle argued are also applied to the professional and social life of engineers. This paper argues that the virtues of courage, honesty and fairness are constantly invoked by the golden rule mean in the field of engineering. To provide an example as a student, these traits have yet to be achieved. In fact, they may take a lifelong experience and habituation to reach them.

This essay will discuss the statement with the aid of Mathematics and Natural sciences as the two areas of knowledge. The reason that attracted me to discuss this knowledge question is that it was the title that evoked the most reaction and emotion from me. As a student who wants to specialize in the field of engineering, I thought writing this essay would be a fascinating opportunity to explore the definition of application and the value of knowledge application and value especially caught my eye. I decided that the most suitable areas of knowledge to discuss this statement were
