Teaching of English
in the Department of Arts & Humanities
There's only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self. So you have to begin there, not outside, not on other people. That comes afterwards, when you have worked on your own corner. -- Aldous Huxley

Degree Requirements
Doctor
of Education in the College Teaching of English (90 points)
Doctor
of Education in the College Teaching of English (Ed.D.C.T.) is designed to
prepare candidates for positions as college and university English instructors,
researchers, administrators of writing centers, and directors of college
writing programs. The Ed.D.C.T. degree program, structured to develop the depth
and breadth in candidates’ knowledge of teaching college English, provides a
rigorous background in relevant theoretical debates in writing (i.e., basic
writing; first-year composition; composition theory/pedagogy; writing
assessments; writing and technology; the place of literature in the teaching of
writing) and language (i.e., English as a second language; multilingualism and
speech communities; language and cultural/political identities; international
and transnational perspectives on language).
