Career Writing


At the moment, I’m majoring in Biomedical Engineering. To be honest, from my experience, most people don’t really know what types of writing that Biomedical Engineers (or really any type of engineers) do. From my basic research and experience, a lot of effort goes towards presentations and reports. Engineers have to be good at presenting their ideas and their work in order, generally in order to receive more funding to move their given project forward. When the project is all said and done, a report is written up in order to comprehensively represent their work and their data in a manner that another engineer (with a similar expertise) would be able to replicate the project exactly as it was done and progressed through originally. Many engineers also choose to write into their respective journals in an effort to bolster their credibility in their field, which results in a better salary bargaining position.
