2023 Professional, Technical, Business, and Scientific Writing Students

STUDENTS

College is a profoundly productive time of one's life; it is a chance for personal growth and expansion. Pupils try to find out their values and cultivate the integral skills to become a halcyon adult. But learning goes far beyond a classroom - the late nights discussing Duchamp with a peer, the nugget of wisdom learned from an old professor, the exposure to a different way of viewing the world. Therefore, finding a diverse college vastly enhances what you gain from your time in college.

Professional, Technical, Business, and Scientific Writing is a less racially diverse major than average*. 76% of the US' Professional, Technical, Business, and Scientific Writing majors are white students, followed by latino students (9%), black students (6%), and students of other races**(6%).
