What are our alumni saying?
“The instructional design and training experience I gained as part of the MSTCM program have benefited me in every area of my professional life. I have also brought many of the research-based principles and ideas from the program into my work. My experience in the MSTCM program was both rigorous and fair, and it has taken my game to the next level!”
“Being a part of the MSTCM program helped me discover my love for the field of technical communication. Having a background in marketing with the addition of a technical communication degree has been a useful combination, and I am excited to see where it takes me.”
“The MSTCM program really challenges students to think like a manager leading a team to accomplish goals in support of a technical solution. It helped open the passage for me to transition into a management role even before I completed my degree.”
“The Mercer faculty members are accomplished in using computer-mediated technologies to make learning relevant and engaging for adult professionals, and they have continued to advise, support, and mentor me since I graduated. In my job, I use and apply what I learned in my courses every day, and my employer has tailored job descriptions and roles for me based on the knowledge and skills I acquired through Mercer’s MSTCM program.”
“When I joined this program, I already had 9 years of experience in TC. However, the different subjects I studied so far have helped me get familiar with other aspects of TC that I have not practically worked on. For example, the usability course really helped me when I interact with the UX designers in my current workplace.”
