Developing a Content Management Framework for the UMN Aerospace Engineering and Mechanics Policy and Procedure Manual: A Case Study

Abstract

Engineering and Mechanics Department to revise their digital policy and procedure manual. I aimed to act as a technical communicator would on a real-world, complex project, utilize the skills and tools I gained throughout my academic studies in technical communication, and explore more specialized topics in technical communication, in-depth. What are best practices for handling digital information? Do technical communicators play a role in determining how information is stored and retrieved in technological systems? Or does the role of the technical communicator lie solely in the realm of content creation and curation?
