Create a brief feasibility report. The purpose of feasibility reports is to analyze a problem or situation and assess the possible solutions.

Analyze skills required to meet the needs of your future career and whether adding a second minor in Technical Communication or a Writing Certificate make sense for your professional goals.

Using the memorandum format found on chapter 2.13 of Open Technical Communication, create a 2 page, single-spaced memorandum that is organized using the following headings:

Background
a. What is your current major/minor?
b. How many hours have you completed toward your current major/minor?
c. How many hours do you still have to complete?
d. When is your anticipated graduation date?
e. Describe your career goals. How will your choice of major and minor further your goals?
Requirements
a. What would be required for you to add Technical Communication as a second minor or major? What would be required for you to add a Writing Certificate to your current program?
b. If you decided to add either of these to your current academic program, what would you need to do to proceed?
c. Are there any courses required for Technical Communication that could also meet a requirement? For example, most chemistry students also get a minor in mathematics because of the overlap of coursework.
d. Who is your advisor and what is the best way to contact them?
Benefits
a. Visit the Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Outlook Handbook https://www.bls.gov/ooh/, and see what type of communication work is associated with your prospective career?
