Formal Letter of Introduction

Updated: 03.04.2025 Subject: Formal self-introduction Dear Professor Blackstone, As I embark on your Critical Thinking & Communicating module, I am eager to refine my communication abilities and deepen my critical analysis skills, both of which I recognize are paramount for success in the demanding field of civil engineering. My name is Wen Cong, and I am a bachelor of civil engineering student at SIT. I am writing to introduce myself and articulate my specific goals for this course, aligning them with the high standards you set for effective professional communication. My foundation in architecture from Nanyang Polytechnic, coupled with subsequent practical experience in BIM coordination and on-site drafting, has provided me with a solid understanding of the technical aspects of construction. However, I am acutely aware that technical proficiency alone is insufficient. To excel as a future construction project director, I must master the art of conveying complex informat...

Exercise 1

“While all engineers should have strong communication skills, global engineers face additional challenges, making effective communication essential.” Based on this quote, Priya and I believe that engineers must possess strong communication skills to effectively convey technical ideas, collaborate with teams, and engage with stakeholders. Global engineers, in particular, operate in multicultural and international contexts, where they encounter challenges such as language barriers, cultural differences, and varying professional norms. Moreover, engineers are shaped by the unique external and internal conditions of their respective countries, including diverse education systems and industrial practices. These differences can create gaps when collaborating on global projects. While effective communication is a fundamental skill for all engineers, it becomes even more critical for global engineers. They must overcome linguistic and cultural barriers while aligning their approaches to achiev...

Summary + Thesis Draft #1

Summary Autodesk Revit is a leading Building Information Modeling (BIM) software widely used in architecture, engineering, and construction for designing, visualizing, and managing building projects. According to Autodesk (2021), Revit enables users to create intelligent 3D models containing both geometric and non-geometric data, supporting seamless collaboration across disciplines like architecture, structural engineering, and MEP (mechanical, electrical, plumbing). The software’s parametric modeling allows users to efficiently modify design elements while maintaining relationships and constraints between them. Key features , as highlighted by Autodesk (2021), include the automated generation of 2D drawings, schedules, and reports from 3D models , terrain analysis , and structural design tools that reduce manual errors. Additionally, advanced collaboration tools such as BIM 360 for cloud-based worksharing ensure efficient workflows and enhance multidisciplinary communication. ...
