ENG 7057 - Communication & Critical Thinking

The Communication and Critical Thinking course develops the critical thinking and logical argumentation skills necessary for post-graduate level communication. This course explores communication in a cross cultural and discipline specific setting, and provides strategies for effective academic and professional writing and seminar presentations, taking into account communicative purpose and audience. Workshops and assessment provide practice in locating, analysing and evaluating appropriate sources of information, and synthesising evidence to support a sound viewpoint. The course is particularly designed to enable students with English as an additional language to maximize their capacity to learn and interact effectively in an English speaking academic and professional environment.
