The Department of Writing Studies complements the graduate student experience by offering exciting opportunities to teach First-year Writing (in the classroom or in the Writing Center), engage in independent studies, and participate in our dissertation writing group. We also offer a UGrow Fellowship that focuses on Writing Program Administration.
Graduate students who are interested in opportunities to teach in our First-year Writing program should discuss the opportunity with their program’s Director of Graduate Studies, and if appropriate, enroll in WRS 691, which typically runs fall semesters each academic year. Students interested in completing independent studies in writing studies pedagogy, research, and theory may contact the department chair directly. Additionally, students who are interested in participating in our dissertation writing group or working as a consultant in the writing center should contact our Writing Center Director for more information.
