Office of Graduate Professional Development
The Summer 2024 OGPD Writing Program application is now OPEN
The Writing Program is a free, non-credit professional development activity, which aims to provide community and social support for graduate students during the writing stage of their programs. The program uses small, focused discussion groups over the course of a term to build, establish, and reinforce writing habits with peers pursuing similar goals.
Participants must be actively engaged in a writing project (thesis, dissertation, manuscript, qualifying exams, research papers, literature reviews, etc.) to join the program.
Note: the Writing Program will be held on Zoom.
