Why W&R Is The Program You Need Now
Read Critically And Analytically – Write Clearly And Persuasively
More than ever, in today’s digital world, writing and rhetoric go hand in hand. Given how much we interact with media, being able to distinguish between credible and suspect sources of information is crucial. The arguments, stories, and information that draw our attention require careful analysis and critical assessment. At the same time, our ability to write clearly, concisely, and persuasively is increasingly important for both our work and personal lives.
Choose The W&R Minor Program or Individual Courses
Complement your specialist or major program with the W&R minor program, or select from individual courses that explore writing and rhetoric from historical, theoretical, and practical perspectives. You will be able to examine writing and rhetoric in terms of the field’s core ideas, history, relationship to other disciplines, applications, and uses across media platforms. You will also learn how to write well and in a variety of genres (academic, fiction, literary non-fiction, and reports), and for a variety of audiences (scholarly, popular, scientific, general, and business).
