ENG 092 - Basic Patterns of Writing

Credits: 3
Lecture Hours: 3
Lab Hours: 0
This course introduces students to college writing and reviews fundamental grammatical principles. Students begin to learn to formulate a thesis, use topic sentences, develop ideas, and organize supporting evidence in an essay. Grammar, punctuation, sentence structure, and clear language are heavily stressed. This course is required of some students on the basis of a placement examination and open to other students who want a review course.
Notes: ENG 092 is a credit equivalent course. Equivalent credits do not satisfy degree requirements and are not calculated in a student’s grade point average, but they do incur tuition charges and they do count towards full-time/part-time status.
Prerequisite(s): Satisfactory scores in English proficiency tests or completion of ENG 091 or ENG 095 with a grade of C or better
