Writing at the Research University
Description
ENGL 105 focuses on written and oral argumentation, composition, research, information literacy, and rhetorical analysis. The course introduces students to the specific disciplinary contexts for written work and oral presentations required in college courses. Some sections focus on one specific disciplinary context (e.g., natural sciences, social sciences, humanities, law, business, medicine) and some sections cover multiple disciplinary contexts. Each section will reference the topic(s) covered.
