The importance of soft skills for employability
Soft skills are fundamental to a successful career, as they are the basis for the ability to find the most appropriate responses to the demanding challenges that arise in a professional context. They go beyond disciplinary knowledge and do not refer specifically to the technical or scientific nature of engineering in the curricula (hard skills), but above all to a set of skills of a more generic or transversal nature (soft skills) that enhance and promote the personal development of students and their professional skills when transferable to the workplace.
