Skills for engineering and built environment students by John Davies
As well as academic skills, future engineers need to be able to present data, work in project teams, carry out experiments, problem solve and write reports. This book will help students embarking on engineering degrees develop all the core skills they need for study and future careers.
'The book covers aspects specific to engineering and the built environment courses and careers, but many of the more generic sections of the book would be appropriate for any disciplineThe quotes from students were particularly useful and give weight to the author's points.' - Professor David Cheshire, Staffordshire University 'It has a relaxed style and tone and feels like the friendly uncle who is 'in the know'. The defining feature is the style and tone. I think the quotes will be attractive to students - in my experience students trust other students' opinions over the advice of staff!' - Professor Tony Price, University of Warwick
