Foundational Writing Skills Intensives

Apply Here for June Option!

This series of workshops will offer a refresher on the foundational writing skills, such as sentence structure, paraphrasing, and paragraph organization, that students need to support their graduate academic careers at TTU. We hope you'll consider applying. 

What: This writing skills intensive is an in-person, interactive multi-day workshop series for graduate students and post-docs. It focuses on refreshing and/or developing foundational writing skills.

Learning is cumulative across each session, and participants are expected to attend all four sessions. 

Who: Many graduate students are surprised by the expectations surrounding academic writing at the Masters and Doctoral levels. If you're a graduate student who has felt frustrated in your research process by writing skills like grammar, sentence structure, paraphrasing, or paragraph organization, we'd like to invite you to apply for our Foundational Writing Skills Intensive.

When: Students may choose one of the following options:

• • Summer 1 Option: June 3-6, 10am-12pm, daily 
  • Summer 2 Option: July 15-18, 10am-12pm, daily

Deadline: Space is limited. Applications for the Summer 1 Intensive are due May 28 by 12PM (noon). Applicants to the June program will be informed of their acceptance/waitlist status by May 30.

Applications for the Summer 2 Intensive will open on June 7, and applications will be due by July 9 at 12PM. Applicants to the July program will be informed of their acceptance/waitlist status by July 11.
