Drill of English for Unsoed
>> Tuesday, February 15, 2011
These days, having a single degree focusing on one minor is often not enough. Recruiters are looking for people who display versatility, usually with a skill that is complementary to their major. They are also looking for candidates who have skills that will help them adjust to the working world. One of those minors that certainly fit the bill is English Composition or Writing.
There are a number of reasons for this. Probably the most important of them is the working world is built on communication. It can be shown that those who can express themselves clearly and concisely through strong written and oral communications skills win more debates than those who express themselves poorly, even if the loser really has the better concept.

A minor in English Composition and writing includes basic courses on how to research. One needs to be able to find previously expressed concepts, cite them and then apply them to their own report or speech. It will also allow one to express these concepts in a manner where the writer ends up having a base for their original thoughts. Many times, it can even make the original data even stronger.
Further, quite frankly, the non-academic world is rife with reports, speeches and presentations; sometimes just as much as the academic world. Most schools, whether on campus or online, usually have a relatively simple process for declaring a minor. It involves going to the correct department, usually English, and filling out a declaration of filling out the base course and electives for said minor. From there, it's a matter of actually taking those courses. In certain ways, a student will have to take two English/Writing courses as part of their basic curriculum no matter how they look at it. Those two courses are generally Creative Writing and Report Writing. True, there are students who become exempt from these classes through CLEP exams, but that isn't as common as some might think. Inevitably, two of those courses will undoubtedly be a course on the history of literature and the English language. The other will be a course that will pick up on, enhance and refine one's writing techniques. From there, one or two more electives should close the deal regarding achieving one's minor's requirements.
