About Us
The mission of the Writing Program is to produce better undergraduate writers across the full range of academic disciplines,
and to train graduate students from a variety of disciplines to teach writing effectively. Strong written and oral
communication skills (including an understanding of related issues such as collaborative work and computer technology)
are essential for our students' academic success, and for their active participation in professional and civic life.
We offer courses that focus on critical thinking, research, and literacy in specific contexts, providing opportunities
for the intensive practice of communication skills throughout our students' university experience.
