From students in 355:303 (Writing for Business and the Professions):
One week after graduating I was offered my dream position as a Planner at the Ocean County Planning Department and I gladly accepted. I just wanted to let you know that since working for the government, I have had to write many white papers and proposals and just received a grant for $50,000 for a project that I am working on! I must admit that your class has definitely helped prepare me for my career! I just wanted to give thanks where it's due.
-Jenny Jimenez
This course really improved my confidence in my research and writing abilities. My final research paper was accepted for the Undergraduate Research and Writing Conference in 2020, and I ended up interning for the URWC the following year. Writing is not scary anymore. I bring this confidence to any academic or work setting I am in.

From students in 355:302 (Scientific and Technical Writing):
Scientific and Technical Writing was an amazing experience for me and my professional development. After taking the course, I had the opportunity to write my senior thesis, where I was able to apply the tools that I learned in 302 to research and develop a project that I was truly proud of. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to take this class and look forward to using everything I learned about researching and writing a project proposal in the future in medical school.
-Nada Wahba
As an aspiring researcher, Scientific and Technical Writing prepared me well for the rigors of scientific research as well as prepared me to present my research in an effective and persuasive manner. In addition, this class taught me practical skills such as learning how to prepare a complete project proposal. The value of this cannot be overstated.
