| Summary: | In delivering oral presentation, it is important for the presenters to make the audience listen to them. One way to attract the audience is through oral presentation delivery skills which include the use of voice, eye contact, gestures, body posture, body movement and facial expression. However, presenters often neglect delivery skills and focus more on the content. Thus, this study intends to investigate to what extent the engineering students know and apply the appropriate oral presentation delivery skills. The objectives of this study are to find out the engineering students’ awareness of the appropriateness of oral presentation delivery skills and to investigate the use of appropriate oral presentation delivery skills. The findings of the research show that the students are aware of the appropriateness of oral presentation delivery skills. However, it is surprising to know that even though they have the awareness, they do not apply the skills in their oral presentation.
