manuscript formatting for journal submission and grant proposals. |

Curriculum Fit |
The proposed course
satisfies a demand amongst the EEES graduate students and faculty for a
technical writing course that will provide a valuable resource for enhancing
writing skills. Additionally, this
course is designed to facilitate progress in each student’s personal graduate
program by allowing the student to focus on his or her own research interest
and data. In order to provide the
best possible scenario for interaction and individual attention, this class
will be limited to 15 students. We
expect this class to be full each semester it is offered. |
