English 302
ENGL302, Advanced Composition, builds on the general college-level writing skills and strategies students have acquired in earlier courses, and prepares them to do advanced level analysis and writing specifically within their major field and their possible future workplaces.
ENGL302 is offered in four versions: Business, Humanities, Natural Sciences/Technology, and Social Sciences. Students are advised to complete the ENGL302 version that is most relevant to their major field or postgraduate professional plans, and to do so by the end of their junior year, so that they may incorporate their new knowledge into senior-level research and writing projects in their major field.
Prerequisites
All students, regardless of discipline, who register for ENGL302 must meet the following prerequisites:
- A minimum of 45 credit hours
- Credit or requirement waiver for ENGL100 or ENGL101
- In degree programs that require 6 hours of literature, at least 3 must be taken prior to ENGL302; 3 credits may be taken concurrently with ENGL302
Goals
Dual Submission in ENGL 302
The “dual submission” option allows students to use a paper written for ENGL 302 to meet the requirements for an essay assignment in another course during the same semester. Students interested in the “dual submission” option must request permission from both instructors before proceeding. To request permission, students must provide both instructors with copies of the essay assignments and a completed ENGL 302 Dual Submission Form. Dual submission requires the approval of both instructors.
