ENG 470 Advanced Methods in English

This course emphasizes research skills and is preparation for ENG 485. Students in this course will investigate various dominant methodologies or approaches in the field; select research questions and develop initial project proposals for their capstone essay; and systematically consider which methodologies or approaches will be most effective for their individual projects. By the end of the course, students will write a fully developed, actionable proposal that will become the basis of their capstone work. ENG 470 is required for English majors, and should be taken in the semester immediately preceding ENG 485.
