Writing for the Biotechnology Industry

Starting with the fall 2009 term, this course will be renumbered as TCC 4130.

The growing biopharmaceutical industry depends on good documentation for communication with scientists, researchers, and lay audiences. Students focus on the documentation-development process for the industry. The course uses corporate models and examples chosen from marketing, research, and sales. Students will cover writing style, tone, and the review cycle. Topics include bioethics, confidentiality policies, the need for quantification and detailed referencing of source material.

Prerequisite: TCC 4101 and TCC 4102 Technical Writing 1 and 2 or instructor’s permission.
