Abstract :
Transferable skills are vital in modern engineering work. Educational institutions are forced to reassess their education; along with theoretical content, transferable competences are emphasized. This paper demonstrates how teaching transferable skills, such as team work, oral and writing skills, project, time, and financial management, are integrated into a single course. We also show how to motivate students by interactive teaching methods and course evaluation.
