Teams in engineering and technical communication As more courses throughout the College of Engineering incorporate team projects, the TC program has added a team course that focuses on both the team process and team products or outcomes.
Real teams require cross-department collaboration to arrive at solutions.
Team building must come up front, and team members must buy into a mission statement and must be willing to use team-based decision making methods. To be effectiveness on teams, students need clarity of thinking, ability to focus on problems and issues, diplomacy and interpersonal skills in listening, facilitating, and conflict resolution.
