Technical Communication Program
The School of Engineering's Technical Communication Program (TCP) is a resource for students seeking to strengthen their technical writing and/or speaking skills. The program offers courses, individual consulting, and tutorial support for departmental courses in the school. Our services are primarily designed for students in engineering, but we attract students from a wide range of technical disciplines, including science, medicine, and business. We welcome interested students from across the university.
We are located in the Huang Engineering Center, suite 049.
"Technical ability is obviously crucial to success in an engineering career. But of equal importance is the ability to communicate clearly and effectively. Individuals who rise to leadership positions in organizations generally do so partly because they can express ideas orally and in writing in persuasive, concise ways. Stated another way, it's hard to get a group of people excited about an idea or a new product or a research objective, if these things cannot be communicated in a compelling way."
