My Courses
ENG 4900 is the PTW program’s capstone experience wherein students complete a 120-hour internship. Class activities provide an opportunity for discussions and e-portfolio development to enrich the learning experience. Students write weekly status reports, and supervision is by both the faculty and the job supervisor.
ENG 4700, “Special Topics in PTW,” explores the real-world technical and collaborative skills needed for success in the professional and technical writing workplace. It is an advanced course in theories and practice of communication, especially for new media. This iteration of ENG 4700 will use the formation of a PTW Student Club to simulate work situations and create media artifacts that can be featured in a professional portfolio.

Professional and Technical Writing
This degree program will provide students with both a content specialty in areas such as technology, science, or business and the skills to communicate that information to a lay audience in both print and digital platforms through both language and images. Graduates will be prepared for employment in a broad range of professional areas that include business, government, technology, health professions, and grant-writing.
