Section One: Rhetorical & Research Tools for Gaining Employment 

Weeks 1-5, August 20th - September 17th

• In this section we will lean to research a given field, write professional emails to persons in the field, build effective résumés, and write convincing cover letters. In order to effectively write these documents, we will also review writing basics (sentence and paragraph structure) as well as structural norms for these specific genres. This section will culminate with an employment materials portfolio (Project 1).
