随着跨学科和全球化将工程社区转变为超越统一的国家、文化、背景和学科设置和结构的合作领域，工程毕业生正面临着对他们能力的不断变化的要求。工程师不再用简单的专业知识来管理他们的日常任务；相反，他们必须善于沟通、协作、建立网络、提供和接受反馈、团队合作、终身学习和文化理解。这就要求对大学课程进行相应的改革，挑战当前的大学体系，以培养具备与当今工作社区相关的工作生活技能的毕业生。然而，在进行这样的改革之前，大学需要了解通信在工程社区中的重要性和战略作用。本文试图通过首先介绍破坏沟通角色和声誉的因素来确定企业沟通所提供的潜力，并进一步将沟通功能划分为与战略制定，战略实施和工作文化相关的活动，以研究沟通如何支持组织运作。
Engineering graduates are facing changing requirements regarding their competencies, as interdisciplinarity and globalization have transformed engineering communities into collaboration arenas extending beyond uniform national, cultural, contextual and disciplinary settings and structures. Engineers no longer manage their daily tasks with plain substance expertise; instead they must be adept at communication, collaboration, networking, feedback provision and reception, teamwork, lifelong learning, and cultural understanding. This calls for a concomitant change in university curricula, challenging the current university system to supply graduates that possess working life skills relevant in today's work communities. However, before committing to such a reform, universities need to understand the significance and strategic role of communication in engineering communities. This article attempts to establish the potential offered by corporate communications by first introducing factors undermining the role and reputation of communication, and further on, by slicing the communication function into activities related to strategy formulation, strategy implementation, and working culture, to examine how communication supports organizational operations.
