Abstract :
It is pointed out that the best way to solve the writing problems of academic engineers is to provide adequate writing training for engineering students. But given the already compact curricula of engineering colleges, this solution is not realistic. The author presents some second-best solutions which can ease the writing problems of academic engineers
