Professional journals (aka trade magazines) resemble popular magazines. For example, they often have glossy covers, news articles, eye-catching photographs and illustrations, and may contain advertisements and reviews, usually for products used in a profession, trade, or industry. However, they are not published for the general public, but rather for people working in a specific profession, trade, or industry. The content of these journals is tailored for people with some knowledge of the field who want to keep current with news and developments. Some professional journals also publish technical articles.
Many professional journals are published by engineering societies and some also have websites, blogs, and YouTube channels. Below are just a few examples of some well-known engineering magazines.
