課程概述

This year-long course teaches students to write research papers, especially for but not limited to those who expect to enter graduate program or go abroad for further studies. The first semester focuses on smaller tasks related to research paper writing, including summaries, reviews, and rhetorical arguments. While practicing these skills, students will also hone their written English into a better style with in-class exercises and writing workshops. Moreover, students will learn to appreciate the choices made in any writing process and become able to choose wisely while composing, revising, and editing their own work.
