Problem and solution

Nowadays, it is of great important to enhance the awareness of the importance of emotional intelligence among undergraduate students. To acchieve this, many things can be done by NUS and Engineering Faculty. Firstly, Engineering Faculty can add some general education modules(GEM) about emotional intelligence to help students learn the importance of emotional intelligence. Moreover, some bonus marks of such modules can be set. By learning such GEMs, undergraduates will obtain the knowledge of emotional intelligence comprehensively during their study process. However, it may be not an effective way to help undergraduates. The undegraduates may just cram to the exam but ignore the details. Secondly, clubs about emotional intelligence can be set to help undergraduates. Through interesting acitivities and conversations, many undergraduates will benefit from them and be aware of the importance of emotional intelligence. However, as there are many clubs in NUS, this club will easily be ignored. Hence, its function will be limited. Lastly, NUS can print various brochures about emotional intelligence. It is certain that a number of students can get them. Obviously, most of them will learn about emotional intelligence. However, the cost is relatively high. To sum up, NUS and Engineering Faculty can take several measures to help students learn the importance of emotional intelligence.
