| The Department of English at the University of New Mexico offers a PhD in English with focus on Rhetoric and Writing. Preparing for academic careers in teaching and research or for consulting positions in industry and publishing, students take courses in classical and contemporary theory, histories of rhetoric and language, theories of teaching writing, cultural and civil rights rhetorics, public discourse, prose stylistics, visual rhetoric, editing, publishing, documentation, web writing, grants and proposals, and science and medical writing. PhD students frequently supplement their rhetoric coursework with a literary specialization, and many serve as Assistant Directors Of Rhetoric and Writing, working with classroom teachers on pedagogy and curriculum and with university-wide initiatives in writing. |
