Writing in Graduate School and beyond brings new challenges. Not only do writers encounter different settings and documents, they must develop sustainable, self-directed, and productive strategies for managing successful research communications, including: Understanding new audiences and formats such as proposals, abstracts, dissertations, and journal articles. Obtaining useful feedback on works in progress and incorporating it into revision. Establishing scholarly practices to maintain motivation and focus over months and years. Whether you’re looking for a single consultation or sustained classroom instruction, the Writing Program offers a variety of opportunities for learning that will serve you as graduate students, postdocs, and professionals. One-on-one consultations in the Writing Center for feedback on any writing project as well as assistance in developing a sustained practice. Focused instruction through both individual workshops and half-term graduate courses in Writing in Science and Engineering (WSE), for quantitative researchers, and Writing in Social Sciences and Humanities (WSSH), for qualitative researchers. Opportunities for developing sustainable practices in community through Dissertation Boot Camps, Postdoc Proposal Writing Boot Camps, and Writing Days. Opportunities to mentor and teach as a Writing Center Fellow, WSE Fellow, and Quin Morton Teaching Fellow.
