ENG 002 is a 3-credit course designed to enhance students’ writing skills and reading comprehension. The curriculum emphasizes the development of thesis statements, mastery of organizational patterns in reading and writing, and improvement of grammar, sentence structure, and essay composition. Paired with ENG 101, this course is required for students who are placed into remedial coursework based on their performance on the English Placement Test, with both courses taken concurrently within the same semester. Serving as a complement to ENG 101, ENG 002 provides targeted instruction and additional support to help students develop the foundational skills necessary for academic success.
