Dr. Terri Craig is an Assistant Professor of the Practice of English at Utah Tech University, where she teaches courses in English composition, research, and business communications and ethics. She earned her Ph.D. in Education from Capella University and holds a master’s degree in English from National University. Her research emphasis is on developmental English education in higher education. As a professional-track educator, Dr. Craig’s primary focus is curriculum development, teaching, and student support with the goal of cultivating competencies in writing, research, critical thinking, and communication skills in undergraduate students.
Dr. Craig’s passion for English began as a youngster in Southern California, where she grew up. She loved to read, and she often wondered how she could make a career of it. On weekends, she would grab a book, pack a lunch, saddle up her horse, Serena, and ride into the foothills where she spent many an afternoon. Now, her academic journey reflects her commitment to preparing students with the core skills needed to succeed in their upper division course work and, ultimately, their future careers.
