Communications Workshop

Today we had a workshop with two guest speakers at IRE. Traci Nathans-Kelly, Ph.D. and Christine G. Nicometo, M.S. from the College of Engineering of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, talked about the three main styles of communication, (written, verbal, and visual) and then broke those main styles up into topic areas. We were given multiple examples of good and bad forms of communication. We also discussed what forms of communication need to be more formal, and what can be less formal. Today, there was a lot of eye-opening communication facts presented that will benefit IRE as a whole. We would like to thank Dr. Nathans-Kelly and Master Christine for traveling up to Virginia to increase our professional communication skills.
