Faculty

We help you as writers

  • One-on-one consultations for faculty members’ writing projects and publications
  • Faculty academic writing groups

We support you in the classroom

We support all UC Davis faculty and instructors who teach writing, whether you teach a writing component in discipline-specific courses, instruct Writing Across the Curriculum courses or teach discipline-specific Writing Experience courses. 

The Writing Center team also collaborates with faculty to develop and facilitate writing workshops specific to course or assignment goals. Previous writing workshops include:

  • Synthesizing Sources
  • Revision Strategies
  • Graduate Writing Expectations
  • Scientific Communication

If you are interested in developing a workshop for writers in your class, please fill out this online writing workshop form or email Erica Cirillo McCarthy, Writing Center director. 

Talk about the Writing Center with your students

    • The UC Davis Writing Center offers free one-on-one consultations to the Aggie community. We believe that all writers benefit from individualized attention, so we invite writers from any discipline to work with a trained peer consultant on writing and communication projects at any stage of the writing process. Consultants offer concrete strategies within a collaborative environment, guiding writers to develop their voice as they negotiate new writing situations and emerging technologies. To schedule a face-to-face or online appointment, please go to https://writingcenter.ucdavis.edu/ or stop by the Teaching and Learning Complex, fourth floor, or call us at 530-754-2999.
