Enhancement of communication and teamwork skills are important themes in higher education. For example, the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) and the Japan Accreditation Board for Engineering Education (JABEE) have adopted these skills as significant criteria in their accreditation program. They are also listed in generic skills as the significant competence of students. Gunma University’s School of Science and Technology implemented an Employability Program from 2010 as a requirement for all first-year students. Under the auspices of this program, coursework in career planning and career design are offered to enhance student abilities in these areas. This study focuses on the enhancement of communication and teamwork skills through group discussions and poster presentations based on problem surveys. Student perceptions of communication skills and teamwork were investigated through a questionnaire. Results showed that students perceived improvement in those vital skills.
