TeX is a useful tool for any scientific professional, but it can also be used by undergraduates to create high quality documents for courses. My presentation will focus on why TeX is a useful program for undergraduates to learn. It can create higher quality lab reports and other documents for courses than other commonly used word processors such as Microsoft Word. TeX can be utilized by anyone through use of a TeX document preparation system such as LaTeX and only a few simple commands. Perhaps best of all, TeX is free to download and use! By taking the time to understand how to use TeX, students will learn a valuable skill that will be continue to be useful throughout their academic and professional careers.
