Welcome
Welcome to the homepage for Technical Communication in the Department of Civil Engineering at The University of Texas at Austin. Education in Technical Communication has become an important part of all engineers' career preparation and continuing professional development.

This site explores the communication courses, research, and educational delivery systems offered through the Department. One feature is an online Communicator's Manual, usable by anyone who wants to brush up on presentation and writing skills. The site also offers links to outside resources (in the University and beyond) that may be helpful to students and researchers of Technical Communication. We hope you enjoy the journeys we have mapped out for you!

The Program
The technical communication program in the Department of Civil Engineering provides instruction in technical writing, speaking, and collaborative work for over 130 civil engineering and aerospace engineering undergraduate students and 25 graduate engineering students a year. The primary forms of this instruction are three courses: CE 333T and CE 333T Honors (undergraduate) and CE 389C (graduate).
