Expanded Course Description
This course provides a rigorous introduction to scholarly writing and speaking through the process of conceiving, researching, writing, workshopping, and revising one long paper and presenting this work as a conference paper at the end of the term. The course will also briefly introduce various theories and methods of English studies. The course serves as an introduction to graduate studies in English at UO and to career paths and professional lives and work that follow graduation.” This version of the course will also include learning how to define, navigate, and contribute to specific fields; learning about academic genres, cultures, protocols, politics, and ethics; discussing how to form productive research questions; introducing digital humanities methods and skills; researching and planning for alternatives to academic careers; and strategically mapping out a trajectory and timeline for the MA or PhD. |
