Writing Strategies Course

Most degree programs require you to take ENG106 – Writing Strategies. ENG106 is a one-semester course, and it is offered three hours per week.

In this course, you will focus on writing strategies that will provide you with the ability to advance solid critical argumentation supported by relevant primary and secondary sources; in addition, you will learn to interpret others texts, recognize rhetorical strategies, and draft concise and logical critical responses. At the end of this course, you will be able to differentiate between fact and opinion, and you will have the critical tools to evaluate author bias and perspective. In so doing, ENG106 will help you develop transferable writing and argumentation skills necessary for both academic and professional purposes.

You will be able to add the course you require through the online Student Home when you are building your timetable.
