CHEN 301, Engineering Workplace Writing, integrates best-use practices of technical communication instruction including high-impact learning activities while also meeting university student learning outcomes. The course stresses the principles of rhetoric, i.e., understanding the audience and purpose of communication in different workplace contexts, in order to effectively prepare and deliver the message. You, the student, will practice the essentials of technical communication while addressing a variety of communication challenges, thus reinforcing communication, critical thinking, lifelong learning, and collaboration outcomes as stated in the TAMU Undergraduate Learning Outcomes and ABET Program Educational Outcomes.
I am excited about equipping you with writing skills that will help you approach new communication contexts in your profession with confidence!
