Adv Professional Writing

Catalog description

Advanced Professional Writing: In this course, students will both expand the scope of professional writing forms and further hone the writing skills found in ENG 204. Specifically, students will write longer documents, such as reports, case studies, and white papers. In addition, students will write a series of documents to build a digital story: blog, social media posts, and short video scripts. To help students become better professional writers, they will perform in-depth research, pay special attention to audience, and tailor their writing styles to best suit the medium they're writing in. Finally, to emulate the practices of professional writers, students will share and evaluate what they write through workshops and presentations. Prerequisites: QEN 101 and ENG 204. (Offered every fall term.)
