ENGL 1130 — Principles of Prose Style 2 Credits
This course examines the elements of style and conventions of grammar from a rhetorically-informed perspective. In addition to reviewing standards for clear, readable, effective prose, the course examines the effects of stylistic variations in the context of diverse writing situations. Students will analyze specimens of prose and apply their understanding of grammatical and stylistic principles to improving their own writing. Although it is not a prerequisite to this course, students will benefit from having taken ENGL 1125 Fundamentals of Grammar prior to taking this course.
