Report Writing Guide
for Engineers
The Report Writing Guide (RWG) aims to help engineering students develop report-writing skills that will lead to clear, precise, and professional communication, ultimately contributing to their success in the workplace.
Technical report writing can vary across the different engineering disciplines and has differing stakeholder expectations, making a universal standard elusive. The RWG aims to harmonise these differences by detailing commonly accepted norms and standards for writing.
Mastering technical report writing involves learning these standards and applying them effectively. A consistent standard not only enhances clarity and coherence but also supports students, especially in collaborative projects, by providing a unified framework for team-based projects. |

but it is engineering that changes the world.” - Isaac Asimov American writer, professor of biochemistry |
