Professional Writing
Writing well is not a gift—it is a skill that is developed. Regardless of the path you take after graduation, the ability to write clearly and effectively is critical to your success. Whether you are writing academic papers or writing for the workplace, your future audience will be professionals who need accurate information to make decisions.
In this discussion, you will present professional writing of the following:
Professional statement: A professional statement is generally required when applying to graduate school. You will need to write a detailed explanation of why you want to study a chosen subject and how it fits with your academic or career goals. This is an opportunity to describe your aspirations, values, and goals. The professional statement should not exceed two pages.
Cover letter: Provide an example of a cover letter you have used or plan to use for a potential employer.
In your initial post, describe what feedback has been helpful for you as you developed your writing skills (it might be from instructors, peers, coworkers, et cetera). Next discuss what you would like to do to continue to improve your professional writing skills.
