摘要：The aim of this study was to understand and compare the expectation and perception of 40 engineering employers regarding the soft skills in Engineers. The most important soft skills for an Engineering professional, identified through a systematic bibliographic review, were arranged into six groups, as follows: critical thinking, creative thinking, communication, teamwork, ethical perspective and emotional intelligence. The chosen methodology for data analysis was a fuzzy logic, in order to preserve the subjectivity inherent to soft skill. Forty psychologists were also interviewed and the delphi method was used to include their perceptions between soft skills for calibration of the fuzzyTECH software. The results obtained with the fuzzyfication of the data revealed that the perception of employers of soft skills in engineering professionals is not inline to their expectations in the scenario they are inserted.
