TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Bret asked for suggestions for schools to look for a master's (gotta
get that apostrophe in there) in TC. This isn't quite the same as a
suggestion, but you could check the collegeboard.com website for the
names of all schools offering a TC program. This same question was
recently asked on WINHLP-L which is archived. If you know how to
access their archives, you possibly could excavate some good answers.
I happen to remember Iowa State University in Ames, and I think
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in New York generally gets good
reviews.
