Technical Writing courses are not given to students as a priority when in actuality the work industry requires an individual with good technical writing skills. When starting a full-time position as an engineer, I had to validate a new automatic fixture for production use. The specification document and preventative maintenance documents associated with the fixture were so hard to follow. It wasn’t clear as to what the purpose of the specification was. As an undergraduate student, we were taught to write requirements documents and technical documents in a way that if a random person picked it up they could understand how to the fixture worked and how to rebuild the entire device. I never took a technical writing course, but it would be very useful for students to take it. Being able to convey information in the form of a clear and concise document is crucial within the medical industry.
