在這里學(xué)什么？
While the study of rhetoric is central to liberal arts education, in the Writing and Rhetoric (WRIT) major at St. Edward’s, we also see it as creative and ultimately practical. In its broadest sense, rhetoric is the study of how humans write, argue, express themselves, and communicate. In this major, students will...
- Study the way in which language gives form and meaning to experiences
- Analyze how language is used to communicate and achieve real-world changes
- Collaborate and connect with other writers and readers
- Prepare for a career involving writing, editing and other communication skills
- Write for a variety of audiences, situations and purposes
- Apply the craft of writing to experiential settings through an internship
Students who complete the major are expected to have the skills necessary to enter graduate or professional schools or to pursue careers with heavy writing and editing components.
FOUR WRITING & RHETORIC TRACKS AND DEGREE REQUIREMENTS
The recently updated Writing and Rhetoric (WRIT) major offers four courses of study or "concentrations." Students can choose a structured Creative Writing, Professional Writing, or Journalism and Digital Media concentration, or opt for the flexible General concentration, which offers a broad range of genres and writing situations.
Creative Writing
Students will select courses from traditional genres such as poetry, fiction, nonfiction, playwriting, and writing for stage and screen, as well as writing in emerging and hybrid genres. Our Creative Writing faculty is led by award-winning working artists. In addition to traditional workshop-based writing courses, this concentration includes courses in literature and professional writing to create customized writing experiences and broad skill sets.
Professional Writing
The professional writing concentration provides students with timely experience that they can apply in the job market. The professional writing faculty, whose experience ranges from the courtroom to the conference room, help students to develop an array of skills and problem-solving strategies.
Journalism and Digital Media
Students in this concentration take courses in interactive media and design, online journalism, copyediting, and media standards. They select additional courses in various areas of journalism and digital media, including magazine writing, opinion writing, broadcast journalism, documentary production, entertainment writing, and sports writing. Students interested in a range of careers receive highly marketable instruction designed to prepare them for the workplace.
General
For students who would like to develop their versatility as writers and scholars, the general track provides a concentration with a wide variety of options. With a solid foundation in grammar, style, and rhetorical theory, students can choose to customize a course of study that may include classes in Legal Writing, Entertainment Journalism, Grant Writing, or Humor Writing, just to name a few.
