This course is designed to prepare you in the methods and forms of communication used in business and professional environments, with special attention paid to the new demands of electronic  communication skills and the "grammar of the screen" in a marketplace still dominated by the printed page.

Writing in this course will emphasize the importance of addressing the needs and values of a particular audience, identified and/or determined in ways that will make assignments as relevant as possible to your major or a field of specialization. These intended audiences will include peers in your major and across related disciplines, and professionals -- particularly potential employers! -- in your field.

Technical communication serves both technical students whose work includes substantial writing, such as engineering, science, and management students, and also communications students whose primary work activities will be writing and other forms of communication.
