Within the dynamic field of engineering, it is crucial to recognize the immense importance of soft skills in conjunction with technical expertise. This study explores the significant importance of soft skills in the field of engineering education and their substantial influence on the employability and professional achievements of graduates. The present study utilizes a thorough examination of the existing condition of soft skills education inside engineering programmes and assesses its impact on the professional paths of graduates. Key concepts such as "emotional intelligence," "teamwork," and "effective communication" are identified as crucial elements in success narratives, providing evidence that soft skills are not only abstract ideas but rather valuable assets in the highly competitive labour market. There are ongoing difficulties associated with the incorporation of soft skills into engineering education, which encompass resistance from faculty members and limitations imposed by the curriculum. In order to effectively tackle these concerns, this research study provides pragmatic suggestions. It is recommended that engineering universities place emphasis on the development of soft skills by means of faculty training, curriculum restructuring, and the cultivation of industry collaborations. It is often recommended that students actively engage in extracurricular activities, internships, and networking in order to effectively develop and demonstrate their soft skills. This study emphasises the necessity for engineering institutions, educators, and students to acknowledge the crucial significance of soft skills in effectively navigating the contemporary engineering environment. By accepting this shift in paradigm, the engineering community can guarantee that graduates possess not only technical proficiency but also the necessary soft skills required to excel in the contemporary workplace of the 21st century. The present study aims to investigate the relationship between soft skills and engineering education, with a specific focus on their impact on employability and professional success. The curriculum of engineering programmes will be examined in relation to the development of these abilities, and their role in facilitating career growth will be explored.
