This elective course aims to strengthen analytical English writing skills for senior students of the College of Management. The students are to explore evaluative and critical elements in both professional and academic written reports beyond descriptive presentation of facts or details by assessing and investigating their significance. Representative examples will be illustrated to inspire the students to acquire skills for efficiently engaging with and applying theoretical concepts to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of ideas, unpacking the implication of evidence, synthesizing supportive sources, and creating an overall argument.

There is no single textbook that fits this course. Supporting lecture notes and supplemental material for in-class discussions are to be distributed following the progress of the course.
