This study examines the email correspondences of a junior engineer who just graduated from the university in 2011. The findings shows that the language patterns in the emails are greatly related to the job duties of this engineer and are specifically related to the professional practice in the engineering environment. It is also argued that the methodology adopted in this study could be utilized by engineering students and graduates for monitoring their self-development and improving communication and language skills.
