This tension between communicative skill and technical skilldevelopment in engineering curricular design is no longer necessary or productive. Remotecollaborative work, structurally induced in part by pandemic accommodations has introducednew communication styles, work styles, and projects that arguably better support theengineering- and entrepreneurial-mindset, as reinforced by organizations like STEMNext.org [3]and KEEN’s Engineering Unleashed training programs [4].What is Engineering Communication?O*NET descriptions of communicative needs for careers in Civil

-solving experiences [19, 20].Supportive learning environments that encourage experimentation, risk-taking, and design iterationare critical for cultivating creativity [21]. Instructors play a pivotal role by facilitating open-endedproblem-solving and fostering an inquiry-driven mindset. However, Kazakhstan’s socio-economicdisparities, particularly in rural regions, limit access to modern infrastructure and creative learningresources. Implementing Project-Based Learning, design thinking, and entrepreneurial programscan help address these barriers. For example, simulation-based learning and TRIZ (Theory ofInventive Problem Solving) methods have been shown to double the number of creative ideasgenerated by engineering students [22].Mapping the
