Experiential learning at New Mexico Tech
Service Learning
The Technical Communication program incorperates several experiential learning assignments that allow students to work with real-world clients on projects that impact the NMT and outside communities. Some of these projects involve grant proposals in TC 411 Persuasive Communication, creating promotional fliers in TC 100 Community Service, and documentation in TC 421 Professional Writing Workshop. These projects benefit organizations like the homeless shelter and local food pantry.
NMT has raised over $66,500 for the local Homless shelter, Puerto Seguro Safe Harbor, and has an overall success rate in grant writing of 60%
