2023 Professional, Technical, Business, and Scientific Writing Popularity

POPULARITY

Professional, technical, business, and scientific writing is the 238th most popular degree in America, with 799 students receiving their bachelors degree last year. It just beat out #239 Military Technologies, and narrowly lost to #237 Comparative Literature.

The degree is offered at a total of 91 colleges across the nation, and is the 185th most widely offered degree. It is only offered at 1% of the Top 100 Best Colleges in America.

It is also worth noting that just about 60% of colleges offering professional technical business and scientific writing are public making it a quite accessible field.

The great lakes produces the most professional technical business and scientific writing graduates, largely led by Michigan State University, while it’s the Big Ten Conference that leads conference totals. As far as states, Arizona ranks highest, with particular help from Grand Canyon University and Arizona State University-Polytechnic.

All that being said, no individual school produces more professional technical business and scientific writing graduates than Auburn University, which graduated 57 students last year alone. Although size is critical, another important factor to consider is the program’s density (the percent of all students that study professional technical business and scientific writing). More students studied professional technical business and scientific writing as a percentage of total students at Taylor University than any other college.
