Graduate Writing Studios for non-native English Speakers

Please see below for information about Winter 2014 writing studios for GRADUATE STUDENTS who are non-native English Speakers.  This course is run through Professional and Continuing Education, so there is an additional charge not covered by regular tuition.

ENGL 492 (2 credits) “Graduate Writing Studio”

21022    ENGL 492 A        M W 0830-0920                 MGH 278

21023    ENGL 492 B         T TH 0830-0920                  MGH 278

In this course, students develop strategies they can apply to graduate writing tasks from their chosen disciplines, or to completing papers for publication and other professional purposes.

Upon completion students will have a better understanding about the conventions of writing in their academic fields. Students will analyze and report on writing in terms of:

– Structure and layout of a successful article or paper written in their field or for their department courses

– Vocabulary and rhetorical/grammatical style

– Guidelines for department papers or for journal submissions

– Citation style

Students will also be asked to apply the above conventions to a paper that they have written or are in the process of writing for a course or for publication in a journal.  These could also be proposals/papers for conference presentations, or other professional projects.

No add codes are required for registration. *Please note that a course fee of $713.00 is charged in place of tuition. Students will need to pay for the course when winter tuition is due.
