Graduate Certificate in Technical/
Professional Writing
Check out our program web page!
If you have an interest in the intersections between
writing and technology, you can elect to work toward
a Graduate Certificate in Technical/Professional Writing.
Applicants must already possess an undergraduate degree
in any field of study. Most students entering the program
complete the 21-credit hour certificate in two years
or less. Most of our courses are offered at night and
some at our Uptown campus, in order to accommodate students
who have daytime commitments.
Students are required to take twenty-one (21) credit
hours of graduate course work related to technical communication.
You will learn to:
- design information and visuals
- manage publications and extended projects
- use hypermedia and multimedia authoring tools
- work with real clients and writing situations
- create on-line help and support systems
|
- plan, develop, edit, and maintain websites
- participate in team-based research and writing
projects
- understand context and audience
- develop a professional portfolio
- learn computing applications (Pagemaker, PowerPoint,
web-based authoring tools)
