Communication for Research Engineers
Communication proficiency is one of the most important results of a good PhD and postdoc experience and it is valued
equally in academia and in industry. EPFL PhD students and postdocs are expected to have excellent written, oral and
graphic skills in order to transmit their ideas effectively.
