Bachelor of Arts in English with a Concentration in Professional Writing

The Professional Writing concentration is for those students interested in careers as technical and professional writers and editors. Students in this concentration learn and practice skills in editing, publishing, web site development, technical writing, documentation, and proposal writing, among other practical skills.

Courses range from basic editing and documentation to scientific and nature writing, medical writing, and visual rhetoric. While primarily designed for students interested in the practical careers in writing, the Professional Writing concentration will also give students an edge in graduate or professional programs that require expert skills in writing, visual communication, rhetoric, and rhetorical analysis.
