Overview

Moinak Choudhury is a Lecturer in the Writing and Communication Program (WCP) at Georgia Tech. He previously served as an Assistant Director and Marion L. Brittain Postdoctoral Fellow in WCP.

In addition to technical communication and multimodal composition pedagogy, Moinak's teaching and research fields include community-based learning (CBL), literature and the environment, and digital humanities.

Moinak's publications also focus on the relations between nature, labor, and the production of space.

At Georgia Tech, Moinak's technical communication classes draw on a CBL approach where students work alongside local organizations to solve their communication challenges and learn along the way through mutually beneficial partnerships. He received a Transformative Teaching and Learning (TTL) Grant to develop these classes in Summer 2025. 

His multimodal composition courses focus on topics such as 1) The Histories and Cultures of Automation and 2) Global Texts and the Environment.
