ENGL 5050 - Grammar, Style, and Usage for Advanced Writing

(3)

This course presents the concepts and nomenclature of traditional grammar as a context for students wishing to increase their control of punctuation, style, and usage to become more proficient writers. Its purpose is to offer practical guidance in how grammatical concepts can be applied to revising and editing one’s own or others’ writing to more effectively express one’s intended meaning. The course is designed for students with bachelor’s degrees who have been admitted to Weber State University’s MA program but do not have upper-division undergraduate coursework in linguistics.
