ENGL C1000H

About this course

Part 1: In this course, students receive instruction in academic reading and writing, including writing processes, effective use of language, analytical thinking, and the foundations of academic research. This is an honors course. Part 2: This course introduces students to university-level reading and writing, with an emphasis on analysis. Students will closely examine a variety of texts (personal, popular, literary, professional, academic) from culturally diverse traditions. Students will practice common rhetorical strategies used in academic writing and compose clear, well-organized, and well-developed essays with varying purposes and differing audiences, from personal to academic. As an honors course, the students will be expected to complete extra assignments to gain deeper insight into English Composition.

No section is scheduled at De Anza College for Fall 2026. The course can still be offered in a later quarter.

Enrollment availability changes frequently. Confirm status in the official FHDA registration system before enrolling.

The other FHDA college

The district declares these courses cross-listed with ENGL C1000H. That is a district equivalence, recorded in the colleges’ own course data — it is not an ASSIST articulation, and whether it satisfies a particular transfer requirement is a separate question shown on the pathway pages.
