ENG-525 Academic Composition

Academic Composition is a hands-on, how-to, writing course that enables students to exercise composition skills within the context of traditional rhetorical study as well as contemporary, graduate-level tasks such as creating a book review, an annotated bibliography, and a research essay. Initially, students will grapple with the premise that the key to composition is to properly understand the relationship of words within sentences. Since no single style, tone, or writing strategy applies to every situation, students will begin by imitating a variety of forms of writing, then move toward applying those forms to several academic circumstances, including publication.
