Technical Report

The subject of the Technical Report may be the development of a design, a test, a process, or a significant piece of equipment. The Report should show an attempt to solve an engineering problem in a practical manner. It should utilize engineering technologist level mathematics and engineering/applied science fundamentals appropriate to the subject matter to show a clear indication that the writer understands the subject and can analyze at the technologist level. A Technical Report has no fewer than 5,000 words in the main body. The subject must relate directly to electronics/electrical. The purpose of a Technical Report is to assess the candidate's ability to effectively state and solve an engineering or applied science problem, utilizing the breadth and depth of knowledge acquired at the Technologist level. The Technical Report demonstrates the candidate’s ability to define a problem; examine and describe it logically and accurately through the use of technical fundamentals, design, experiments, processes, data analysis or other appropriate means; and to draw conclusions or make recommendations from the study. The Technical Report is expected to provide appropriate discussion and supporting analysis utilizing the candidate’ academic background and experience gained in the workplace. The Technical Report must reflect a level of engineering knowledge required by an Engineering Technologist. The Report itself need not show originality of ideas, but the candidate must demonstrate an ability to appreciate, present, discriminate between and draw conclusions from observations and ideas in an integrated fashion.
