480.302 Introduction to Graduate Work in Communication

This is an intensive course designed to help students maximize their performance and excel in the program. Each student's syllabus serves individual needs and interests. Topics typically include research, writing, citation, argument, using evidence, and a general introduction to graduate-level scholarship. The centerpiece of the course is that students meet not only in class sessions but also in bi-weekly, one-on-one mentoring and tutorial sessions with the instructor. We believe the course, which does not count toward your degree, is especially advantageous for students returning to school after an absence, for provisional students, and for those who want thorough preparation to achieve excellence in their graduate work at Johns Hopkins.
