# Research Writing

## WRIT-6410

In this class, students will write on topics from their major discipline and investigate the kinds of research texts that professionals in their field produce. The course will emphasize research writing as an ongoing conversation with other researchers. Students will (1) use discipline-specific library databases, (2) identify genre conventions from their major disciplines, (3) develop literature reviews to identify “gaps” for research questions, and (4) write research proposals. In addition, they will develop effective note-taking and research skills and learn strategies for effective prose style.
