Various companies especially interested in TU/e students have emphasized the importance of professional skills. In the high-performance workplaces of today, people need to be able to present themselves, be creative, show (self) leadership and adopt an entrepreneurial attitude towards their work and their lives. Therefore, professional skills such as presentation skills, teamwork skills and writing skills are more important than ever. Young professionals need to bring more to the table than their technical knowledge and an engineering degree. It is the TU/e's ambition to support students with their professional skills development.
The development of professional skills in the master program is supported by an online platform, the so-called TU/e SkillsLab. TU/e SkillsLab is an online environment that gives you easy access to relevant content and tools about a variety of professional skills.
In the TU/e SkillsLab you can take assessments and get feedback whenever you need it. This helps you to know your current level in the various skills.
You can get guidance and coaching to help you setup a personal skill development plan and execute it. You can use the content and tools to practice your skills, on your own time and in your own way. With the TU/e SkillsLab you are in charge of expanding your skills!
