ECP offers three engineering communications courses. ENGRC 350 and 335 carry 3 credits, offer a letter grade, and are limited to 20 students per section. ENGRC 334 is an independent or directed-study course. All are designed for juniors and seniors, although sophomores may enroll. Each has the prerequisites of two freshman writing seminars and field affiliation. All the courses fulfill the college's Technical Writing Requirement, and sophomores, juniors, and seniors may use them as a Free or Approved Elective.

ENGRC 350 Engineering Communications
The ability to communicate well plays an important role in professional success. ENGRC 350 prepares students for that success. They write various types of documents (e.g., letters, memos, executive summaries, problem analyses, proposals, progress reports), give oral presentations, and incorporate graphics in both their oral and written work. Students learn how to communicate specialized information to different audiences (e.g., technical and nontechnical people, colleagues and clients, peers and supervisors, in-house departments, and government agencies), work in teams, and address organizational and ethical issues. The course material is drawn primarily from professional contexts, principally engineering, and it generates lively discussion. The class size ensures close attention to each student's work.

ENGRC 335 Communications for Engineering Managers
ENGRC 335 reviews the kinds of communication particular to an institution and/or organization, how those kinds of communication lead to action (or fail to do so), and what opportunities there may be for communication to improve productivity. ENGRC 335 provides students with the foundational knowledge related to communication in institutions and/or organizations. In addition to demonstrating facility with that foundational knowledge, students will be asked to apply what they learn to study communication in a number real-world contexts, determine the structure and purpose of that communication, and if necessary, consider how one might redesign that structure in order better to enable a desired purpose.

ENGRC 334 Independent Study in Engineering Communications
ECP instructors can offer independent (or "directed") study in engineering communications. A student doing independent or directed study works one-on-one with an ECP instructor. Various types of projects are possible, e.g., studying forms of technical documentation, creating user manuals, analyzing and producing technical graphics, reading and writing about problems in engineering practice, and writing about technical topics for the public. Credits may vary (one-three). Students who want to do an independent or directed-study course must contact and make arrangements with a particular ECP instructor.
