Abstract

The paper discussed the effective team-building technologies in engineering education. The relevance of the research is due to academic and industry based research the emphasized the need for competitive engineers who possess professional competencies and personal qualities as well as engineering graduates who need to work on solving complex problems in teams composed of professionals from many disciplines. The paper describes supported by examples how teamwork can be integrated into the curriculum in conjunction with engineering projects and topics. The research emphasize that students need to understand principles and attributes of effective teamwork, practice teamwork, receive feedback on teamwork, and adopt practices of self-monitoring and self-regulation in their teams. The study offers a methodological training system that includes active teaching methods and a more pragmatic approach in teaching students the skills necessary to function as effective and productive team members. Teamwork skills are increasingly being sought when hiring engineering graduates and employers assume they raise the status of an organization in the market and increase its profit by improving the quality of solving interdisciplinary tasks with minimal time costs and maximum productivity. It also motivates employees and facilitates bonding within the company, opportunity to work together in close proximity leads to strong relationships.
