Student Assessment
Portfolio
In order to receive the certificate, students are required to assemble a portfolio representing their achievements in the five courses (15 credits). The portfolios will contain at least one writing sample and/or project from each course and will be reviewed by the Technical Communication program director and another graduate faculty member from the Department of English or School of Communication. Faculty teaching these courses are informed about the portfolio requirement and will assign projects relevent for inclusion (e.g., reports, user’s manuals, or web sites).
Quality of Work
Students must earn a grade of “B” (3.0 on a 4.0 scale) or better in each course applied toward the 15 credits required for completion of the Technical Communication Graduate Certificate.
