Technical communication minor

The minor in technical communication provides students with a foundation in workplace-oriented communication skills. The skills are particularly complementary to those in engineering and other technical disciplines, and can make students more competitive in their career path.

The program teaches you how to design, write, produce and manage both print and digital professional documents. Many employers indicate they’d like new hires — particularly those in engineering and other technical fields — to possess stronger professional communication skills. Employers seek individuals who have the ability to take technical knowledge and information and effectively communicate it to clients, customers and the public in layman’s terms.
