Collin College

English

From the development of critical reading, thinking, and writing skills to studies of genre-specific writing like novels, poetry, short stories, films, graphic texts, and essays, Collin College’s English courses offer choices for every student. 
 
Composition and rhetoric courses focus on writing as a process, requiring planning, analysis, and research, which allows students to express opinions about the material clearly and with conviction. Students can take their writing a step further with technical writing and electives in creative writing.  
 
Sophomore-level courses include surveys in British, American, and World Literatures as well as Forms of Literature courses, which include the study of poetry, drama, short stories, novels, graphic texts, and/or film. 
 
Writing Centers are available on each campus to provide students with professional consultations in writing and revising assignments.
