An engineer must proficiently demonstrate these skills upon graduation,and it is necessary to equip the student with resources and a curriculum to learn practicalcommunication skills.The typical engineer will spend one-third to one-half of their working day writing reports, andthe engineering curriculum should prepare students for such tasks [3, 4]. Despite the recognizedimportance of technical writing, students often struggle due to a disconnect between academicinstruction and industry expectations.
