Welcome to the University of Chicago Writing Program
The Writing Program offers credit and non-credit courses, seminars and workshops focused on writing for readers in academic and professional contexts. We offer writing support to all University divisions, schools, and programs, including tutoring for undergraduates, specialized coursework for graduate students, and individualized consultations for staff and faculty. We also provide training in writing pedagogy, as well as employment and professional development opportunities for graduate students interested in the teaching of writing.
