WRITING 405

Contemporary Topics and Multidisciplinary Writing

The purpose of Studies in Multidisciplinary Writing is to give students the opportunity to trace one central theme across multiple disciplines. The readings highlight the ways in which disciplinary writing differs in the way it frames questions, constructs arguments, and presents evidence. In this course, students will:

  • Learn how to approach disciplinary writing as a rhetorically situated practice
  • Recognize important genre features across disciplines
  • Practice writing different genres for a variety of audiences
