Organization and time management skills

⇐ ПредыдущаяСтр 6 из 18Следующая ⇒

Engineering courses are very intensive and are likely to involve big projects that require you to manage your own time effectively. You might be able to get through the course without good time management skills, but you won’t have a good time doing it!

Problem solving

Engineering is all about finding solutions to problems. You might find this comes naturally, but there are techniques you can use to make it easier:

· Get specific: You might think you know what the problem is, but are you being specific enough? This is important for problems as simple as a broken toaster: you can’t fix it until you know whether the problem is a blown fuse, a short circuit or something else. You might even realize that the problem isn’t what you thought it was.

· Break the problem down: One big problem might be made up of smaller problems. Smaller problems are easier to think about, and you might find that solving one problem helps you to solve another.

· Talk to someone: Explaining it to someone else can make it clear what’s important and what isn’t. If there’s nobody around to talk to, try writing the explanation out.

There are lots of resources and methods on the Internet to help you with problem solving, but the most important thing to do is practice. Remember, these skills work in all sorts of situations: if you approach every problem you come across using these techniques, they’ll become second nature – and you might find your life gets easier, too!
