Course Description:

'' The English Division offers a wide selection of courses for students with varying interests, from improving
basic reading, writing, and study skills to appreciating and understanding great works of American and
world literature.

The literature classes offer students both introductory surveys and more advanced and specialized studies
of the literature of specific genres and historical periods. Students who are seeking an initial acquaintance
can take ENG 231-Introduction to Literature: Poetry and Drama and ENG 233-Introduction to the Novel. Those
interested in more specialized courses are offered two American literature surveys, Shakespeare,
Children’s literature, and African American literature among others. ENG 139-Creative Writing is offered in
the fall and winter semesters.

ENG 135-Business and Technical Writing trains students to write effectively in the workplace, and it is also
available to people already working in local business and industry who desire to improve their professional
writing skills. Sections of this course are among those taught in computer-equipped classrooms and online,
thus emphasizing computer technology as a critical tool in workplace communication. Students should
contact University Transfer, Advising, and Career Counseling Center for ENG 135 transferability to other
institutions.

ENG 088 and ENG 093 are developmental writing courses and ENG 079 and ENG 081are developmental
reading courses, and are offered every semester to provide students the opportunity to improve their basic
skills and ensure their success at Henry Ford Community College. These courses are among those closely
tied to the Learning Laboratory, where students can get instruction on an individual basis.

If, based on their placement scores, students do not need to take any of the developmental courses, they
should enroll in ENG 131-Composition, a freshman-level course which stresses critical reading, critical
thinking, and critical writing. Either ENG 132-Composition II, or ENG 135-Business and Technical Writing
follows successful completion of ENG 131.

Some students for whom English has not been the primary language need specialized courses to prepare
them for academic success. The English Division offers two developmental writing courses for such
students (ENG 091 and ENG 092), one developmental reading course (ENG 078), and one pronunciation
course (ENG 077). Enrollment is restricted to fifteen per class in the writing courses in order to ensure that
these students receive individual attention.
