The Center for Writing & Rhetoric has offered graduate-level writing and presentation instruction since 1985. More than a traditional writing center, the CWR is a nexus for CGU students through its courses, events, consultations, grant support, competitions, workshops, and more.
From our well-established one-on-one consultation program, webinar series, and writing productivity events to organizing The Big Pitch (3MT) and the Student Grant & Award Initiative, we strive to support multiple dimensions of graduate student success and skill development. To address the specific demands of the post-coursework period, we offer WRIT 350: Dissertation & Thesis Writing and the Qualifying Exams Prep Group. We proudly utilize an anti-discrimination pedagogy in our programs to empower students to meet their academic and professional goals.
