General Skills for Technical Writing

• Writing Guidelines for Engineering and Science Students
  These are guidelines to help you perform writing assignments in the laboratory, design and technical communication classes. You can find formats, models and exercises for several common documents in engineering writing and scientific writing. The site is developed by staff at several North American universities.

Proposals for Technical Projects

• Proposal Request and Sample Proposals
  Look at a real proposal request and sample proposals to learn how to write for an undergraduate level engineering journal. The document specifies clearly the journal’s requirement (such as the format and structure) for the proposals clearly. It also contains the criteria by which the proposals will be evaluated.
