 Nature and Purpose of
Technical Writing
The purpose of this subject is to
teach technical writing skills to a
diverse group of students. This

composition courses, both in
teaching and in the evaluation of the

emphasizes writing that is focused
on scientific and technical topics,
that is clear and concise, and that is
geared toward a targeted audience
by the appropriate choice of format
and technical writing style.
