Tau Beta Pi Engineering Futures Session
Since the 1980s, the Engineering Futures (EF) program has provided professional skills training to help engineering students and practitioners develop non-technical skills that are essential for personal and professional success. The initial EF program grew from chapter officer training workshops developed and delivered by member volunteers, and expanded to serve college students when the curriculum was donated by a professional skills training company. Session Topic - First Contact: Communicating with Purpose
Effective networking can foster learning, invite collaborations, and uncover new opportunities for personal and professional success. The "First Contact" module explores the ways that new people, new tasks, new resources, and new contexts can impact interpersonal communications. Participants will learn the value of First Contact in different settings (networking, teamwork, consulting) and build skills for communicating in unfamiliar situations, with the goal of developing connections, sharing ideas, and building partnerships.
