Institutions: Research in Undergraduate Institutions (RUI) and ResearchOpportunity Awards (ROA)”: PUIs are defined in terms of the nature of the institution, not solely on the basis of highest degree offered. Included by the definition are two- and four-year colleges, masters-level institutions, and smaller doctoral institutions that, institution-wide, have awarded 20 or fewer Ph.D./D.Sci. degrees in all NSF supported fields during the combined previous two academic years (NSF, 2014).We used basic Carnegie Classifications to identify institution types. One limitation was theunavailability of information regarding the number of doctoral degrees awarded in NSF-supportedfields. No data was available regarding declined

had a positiveimpact on the technical writing level of the students.Introduction:A successful engineer has to be able to gather and analyze the data obtained and communicatethe results effectively to engineers and non-engineers alike. Research has shown that anengineer’s performance in the workplace depends greatly on his or her ability to communicateeffectively[1],[2]. This important and crucial skill is rather challenging to teach and even harderto master. Engineering students are by nature reluctant to recognize the importance of propercommunication and as a result do not give it the time and effort it requires. Research has alsoshown that many recent graduates have less than average level of technical writing [3]. Manyinstitutions have
