EPOM 400 B - Presentation Skills for Effective Leadership
This course uses a combination of lecture and workshop formats to prepare students to make convincing presentations and hold effective meetings in a business setting. It will address the following: organizing materials, building persuasive content, developing effective vocal and physical presentation skills that will engage the audience, and develop meeting facilitation skills. Criteria for good presentation and facilitation skills will be standardized in all Master of Engineering core courses. Based on these criteria, standardized feedback can be established and given to reinforce effective performance as well as needed areas of improvement.
EPOM 400 C - Professional Assessment and Development
The goals of the course are to help students learn methods for assessing their knowledge, abilities, and values relevant to their engineering careers, and for acquiring new professional knowledge and skills throughout their career. Students will initially assess their own values, personality style, and organizational competencies. After learning about emotional intelligence at work, each student will solicit and receive feedback from people at different levels in their organization about their work effectiveness.
