Description
This course will apply, on an advanced level, the rhetorical theories of Kenneth Burke to explore the function of identity formation in the context of a contemporary classroom in the College of Engineering. In doing so, it will conduct a more through and in-depth survey of Burke’s theories than occurs in other RCM courses at the undergraduate level. In particular, this graduate-level course will examine how Burke’s theories and methods help us to explore and validate narratives of diversity, inclusion, and reconciliation in the context of the classroom community.
Prerequisite(s): 6 credit units of undergraduate RCM courses or equivalent, OR RCM 800, OR 24 credit units of undergraduate courses.
Note(s): Students with credit for RCM 406 cannot receive credit for this course.
