What We Do
As part of the Teaching + Learning Commons, the Writing Hub contributes to student success; teaching excellence; and campus equity, diversity, and inclusion efforts through writing-focused programming and services.
We work with departments, faculty, and undergraduate and graduate students to bring more writing into students' educational experiences and to improve students' ability to use writing for deep learning and as a means to contribute knowledge in a field.
Through an innovative suite of services, a staff of over 60 highly-trained undergraduate and graduate writing consultants, and strategic partnerships across campus, the Writing Hub provides expertise and infrastructure to support excellence in writing at UC San Diego.
