Class Description:
EngL 3883V is a workshop that supports students writing Honors theses in the Department of English. While most thesis writing will be done under the direction of your thesis advisor and committee, EngL 3883V provides an overview of the writing and research process, a supportive community of fellow writers, and a structure to help students complete this large-scale, long-term, in-depth project--whether the thesis involves literary analysis or creative writing. The course is designed around the three stages of the thesis-writing process: (1) choosing a topic and formulating a research question and/or creative approach, (2) conducting primary and secondary research and/or developing plot, characters, and themes, and (3) producing a written document that answers your question by drawing on your research and/or expresses your creative vision. In general, the Fall semester focuses on questions of method and craft, research and development, and writing as a means of discovery, while the Spring semester is devoted to workshopping drafts, solving problems, and creating a coherent and elegant final product.
