Publishing Engineering Writing: Access and Participation in Professional Practices
Director/PI:
Mary Jane Curry
This study investigates how engineers write for publication and how students and post-docs learn the professional practices related to disseminating research findings.
Collaborators: Wendi Heinzelman
Andrew Wall
Funding: Warner School Minigrant 2008-present
Related Projects: Professional Academic Writing in a Global Context
We use a mixed-methods approach (ethnographic, interview, and survey) grounded in a theoretical framework drawing on social practice, social capital, and social network theories.
Research apprenticeships for doctoral students can be created from this project. Contact Dr MJ Curry at mjcurry@warner.rochester.edu
