Writing@Drew

Writing is an art and a craft, and it is learned over time and developed with practice. Different contexts, purposes, and audiences call on us to write in different ways, drawing on previous writing experiences and exploring new possibilities. To facilitate this process of continued growth and development, Drew offers not one all-purpose first-year writing course but a vertical sequence of courses that students take over their four years, satisfying the writing requirement through a combination of courses within and outside of their major(s).

Students may also enroll in Writing Studies courses in the English Department, completing a Writing and Communications Studies Minor, a Creative Writing Minor, or tracks in either as part of an English Major.
