Course Description

In conjunction with an ongoing critical assessment of their proposed capstone topics, students will evaluate the source material to refine their topics, and to articulate questions and issues for further investigation. After an introduction to the purposes and methods of literature reviews in technical writing, students will be required to write a review of the literature read during the term.
