The AS in Technical Communications and Knowledge Management is a two-year (four-semester) program that will prepare those completing it to transfer into baccalaureate level programs in Technical Communication or related fields at universities throughout Texas and around the country, or to enter the field of Knowledge Management after completing a liberal arts degree and possible graduate training.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Occupational Outlook Handbook: “Technical writers put technical information into easily understandable language. They prepare operating and maintenance manuals, catalogs, parts lists, assembly instructions, sales promotion materials, and project proposals. Many technical writers work with engineers on technical subject matters to prepare written interpretations of engineering and design specifications and other information for a general readership. Technical writers also may serve as part of a team conducting usability studies to help improve the design of a product that still is in the prototype stage. They plan and edit technical materials and oversee the preparation of illustrations, photographs, diagrams, and charts.”
Most Technical Writers work for private corporations, especially in the fields of computer systems design, software publishing, engineering services, and scientific, technical, and management consulting.
Knowledge Management is an emerging field which offers excellent opportunities for students with a broad liberal arts background and strong communications and leadership skills to enter the business world in a way that offers opportunities for advancement into management.
