for this is that students may carry the belief that writing is notimportant in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields. Anothersimilar reason could be that the required university composition course was focused onelements of writing that may not have been perceived as relevant in STEM fields. Often it isindustry partners that drive the need to improve student writing and address changes in thewriting curriculum for engineering courses. One way to explore and improve the writing needsof engineers is through genre theory and/or genre analysis.Genre Theory and Genre Analysis Genre, according to Miller (1984, 2014), is something that defines the context forwhich a piece of writing is written. Thus a genre’s

‘military engineering ethics.’Engineering education interfaces with the military in three key ways: (1) students being educatedto become commissioned military officers at U.S. service academies and other institutions viaROTC programs, who are majoring in engineering; (2) military veterans as ‘non-traditionalstudents’ earning engineering degrees; and (3) engineering students who will work on defenseand/or military-related technology. Key facets of these three groups are discussed below.The U.S. government’s service academies all award engineering degrees. As well, ROTCprograms are present at “over 1700 college and universities” [23]. Thus, a number of engineeringstudents are simultaneously receiving formal education for two professions. “Doctors
