Types of writing expected at the University
The most frequently assigned forms of writing at the univer- sity are the paragraph, the essay, the essay test, and the research paper. Almost all students, whatever their majors, will find themselves writing at least one of each of these forms during their university years. Each form of prose can be specifically described and defined. Each is made up of certain elements put together in certain ways, and the forms have some characteristics in common. Because these forms build on each other, learning how to write one form means that you will be able to handle the next more easily. The following information will help you learn how to write these forms.
Paragraph
The paragraph consists of two kinds of sentences. It is made up of one topic sentence and a number of support sentences. The topic sentence states the point that the writer wants to prove to the readers. Support sentences provide explanation and evidence for the topic sentence. In other words, the topic sentence states the writer’s argument and the support sentences provide proof that the writer has reasons for believing that the argument is valid. The topic sentence is often, but not necessarily, the first sentence in the paragraph. The support sentences, all of which must relate to the topic sentence, then follow.
The Essay (Theme, Paper, Composition)
The University essay is a unit of writing composed of several paragraphs. The structure of an essay is in some ways similar to that of the single paragraph. Just as the paragraph has a topic sentence, the essay has a thesis statement. This statement gives the argument of the essay: It states the point that the writer wants to make to the reader. Just as the paragraph has support sentences, so the essay has support paragraphs to explain and prove the argument. In many ways, then, a University essay may be viewed as an expanded paragraph.

The essay consists of three kinds of paragraphs. The support paragraphs form the middle or body of the essay, offering points of proof that the thesis statement is valid. Each support paragraph begins with a topic sentence that relates the point to be made in that paragraph to the thesis of the essay. The topic sentence is, of course, followed by support sentences that explain and develop the topic sentence. An essay usually has as many support paragraphs as the writer has points of proof.
The essay also has two other kinds of paragraphs, the introductory paragraph and the concluding paragraph. The introductory paragraph acquaints readers with the subject of the essay and grabs their attention. One or more of its concluding sentences presents the thesis. The concluding paragraph gives readers a sense of an ending. It sums up what has gone before and reminds readers for the last time of the thesis, the essay’s main point.
The diagram illustrates an essay that has three major points of proof for the argument stated in the thesis; therefore, it has five paragraphs.
