Post on Quotation for SIE 2016 : Effective Comm

Debra Kraft made the statement because she knows the art of effective communication is essential for an engineer. Their work is complex and technical, but not everyone they work with has the same technical expertise, so effective communication is important.

Subject: Self Introduction Dear Professor Brad, My name is Mu'izzuddin, and this is an introductory letter that will allow you to get to know me better. I am a year one student from class T5 of your communication module, pursuing a degree in Sustainable Infrastructure Engineering.

A recent case to illustrate how fatal speeding-related accidents can be is the Tanjong Pagar incident on 13 February 2021. The driver drove at an approximate speed of 200km/h on the narrow roads of Tanjong Pagar, which had a speed limit of 40km/h. The accident was a confluence of many factors, but an apparent cause was the nature of the road, which was not suitable for driving at such high speeds. The driver's negligence led to the death of 5 people, including himsel...
