ENGRC 3026

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2024-2025.

As a technical contributor or expert, engineers are called on frequently to give presentations (proposals, technical updates, progress reporting, client pitches, engineering advancements/information, and more). However, many presenters have not had specific training about planning, preparing, honing, executing, documenting, and archiving their presentation work; this course addresses those skills. As well, issues of cross-cultural communication, institutional need, audience assessment, and personal presence will be covered. Students should expect to align their work and presentations in this class with a major project in their field. Students will give both individual and team talks.
