Writing Style and Standards in Undergraduate Reports, Second Edition
Used Book in Good Condition
Writing Style and Standards in Undergraduate Reports was developed to provide students with guidance for models of experimental reporting and to fully explain to students how they might produce such reports using their own data. The book presents models that represent the full diversity of experimental engineering reports. Examples range from simple industrial testing documents to complex research reports. All the examples resemble student reports, not professional level work, so students will have familiar examples of undergraduate level results that are reported as concisely, concretely and specifically as possible. In these model reports, as in so much of professional life, communication is driven by data. This book addresses the importance of data by providing detailed explanations of the standards that apply to graphical data displays and by explaining some of the tricks that professionals use to integrate their data displays into reports. New to the second edition is a section titled, Writing on the Job, and a comprehensive index. The new Writing on the Job section provides guidance for writing beyond the classroom and covers the communication skills students will need in their professionial careers.
