Course Title:
Advanced Writing in the Technical Professions
Course Description:
Provides writing instruction for students in engineering, computer science, management information systems, and related technical fields. Students develop an in-depth analytic or recommendation report about a focused topic related to their majors and/or their co-op or other personal or professional experiences. In a workshop setting, students evaluate scholarly and popular sources, practice a variety of professional and academic forms of writing and communication, and develop expertise in audience analysis, critical research, peer review, and revision. Writing is guided in stages from initial topic exploration and a formal proposal through drafts and progress reports to a final polished report, presented in a bound portfolio with a cover letter, an abstract, and other writing samples.
