ENGH 302 - K01: Advanced Composition

This summer section of English 302 incorporates most of the major assignments and all of the learning objectives of the standard 16-week course into a format delivered over our 5-week summer session at Mason Korea. Taking this Mason Core course in the summer ensures that students can focus on their writing in a comfortable environment that is free from the 'in-semester busyness' that often accompanies a full course load in the Spring or Fall semesters. English 302 builds on the rhetorical awareness and other skills that you learned in English 100/101 by introducing a disciplinary context for advanced research and writing. This course helps you understand how knowledge is created and transmitted (and the key conventions of research) in your discipline, articulate and refine your own research question and situate your investigation in an ongoing context or conversation in your field, and design a major project that adds new perspectives to the conversation.

The syllabus for the Summer 2025 section of ENGH 302 is available by clicking the 'PDF' link on the right. On the syllabus, students can see a link to the summer schedule from Summer 2025 to get a sense of the pacing of content and assignments in the class.
