Instead of running our usual 5-week seminar on graduate academic writing, this spring we are hosting a workshop series covering common genres of graduate writing. All graduate students are welcome at these sessions and are encouraged to bring their own writing project to the workshop. Each workshop offers practical advice for approaching your individual writing projects.
Register below to find your own community of fellow graduate writers and have your writing questions answered! Don’t hesitate to email gradwriting@uconn.edu with any questions you have.
All workshops will be held on the first level of Homer Babbidge Library, room 1102.
