ENG 495 — Senior Capstone
This course is the required capstone all English majors in the concentrations of Literature and Creative Writing. On the Lit side, it requires an independent study based on the students chosen area of Lit (a major figure or particular period, for instance). On the CW side, it requires assembling and revising a substantial and representative portfolio of the students best work in fiction, non-fiction, poetry, screenwriting, and/or essays, along with an introductory critical essay about the students study of writing. As part of the creative writing capstone, this class culminates in a required public reading from the students portfolio.
