Mission

The central mission of the TSC programs is to enable graduates to grow as professionals and, ultimately, to contribute to the developing field of technical and scientific communication.

ITSC degrees offer students instruction in some of the newest fields that industry has created, such as:

  • user interface experts
  • product designers
  • information architects
  • customer trainers
  • media consultants
  • interpersonal communication advisers
  • usability specialists

The degree programs also provide instruction in components of professional communication that are applicable to technical and scientific communication, such as document design and production, publications management, organizational and managerial communication, rhetoric and speech communication.

TSC programs combine training and education to prepare students for careers in knowledge management.
