This research paper aims at developing techniques for argumentative writing skills for the technological university students. First year students have never had the experience of argumentative writing since they were at the high school. In this research paper, a survey on selected students from first year is carried out within eight weeks. To collect the data, need analysis questionnaires about how they write an essay are given. The pretest-posttest research design is used to work out this research. The selected students have participated in testing two times. As a result, there is a significant improvement in the second test. The score they have got is much better than the first time. But there has still remained the limitation. The main difficulties through these tests are that they cannot use a wide range of lexical resources and linking words. Some techniques are implemented in this research to enhance argumentative writing skill of the first year students. This paper is hoped to be useful for the students and teachers to be able to write the argumentative essay.
