Course Description:
This course enables students to collect, manage and translate technical information to prescribed audiences to increase broader understanding and facilitate action. In this information age we are deluged with large amounts of information. The process of technical communication involves, collecting, organizing and evaluating that information and then translating it into easily understood formats through a variety of media. Technical communication also involves writing to prescribed criteria such as grant applications, report specifications and other formats. Therefore this course requires consideration of research, visuals, format, audience-awareness, syntax, semantics, and most importantly, the ability to communicate ideas clearly and succinctly.
