Engineering Cafes: User-Friendly Writing (Part 2)

Event Date:
October 20, 2021 – 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM

In this two part workshop, we address the challenges of conveying your research story in a persuasive way for technical and nontechnical stakeholders. We will focus on various writing forms in engineering that include organization and interpretation of results. These will include technical/non-technical reports, results & discussion sections or articles and theses, and similar types of writing projects.

Specifically participants will practice and discuss strategies for:

• Choosing an appropriate structure for reporting and commenting on data
• Effectively organizing data commentaries
• Integrating figures and visuals in reports
• Structuring and revising reports

This workshop is facilitated by Dr. Katie Homar.

Please note: Attendance at both sessions is mandatory. You can register for both at NC State’s REPORTER page.
