Georgetown University Writing Program

The Georgetown University Writing Program serves students and faculty across Georgetown’s main campus in a variety of ways:

• Coordinating the Writing requirements in the Georgetown core, including a first-year writing course – the Writing and Culture Seminar (WRIT 1150) – and the Integrated Writing requirement within the major
• Providing one-on-one support to students at all levels through the Georgetown Writing Center, including the main Center in Lauinger Library
• Developing Writing for Others courses, which challenge students to meet the needs of authentic audiences on campus as well as in Washington, DC (funded by the Enhancing and Transforming the Core Curriculum Initiative)
• Collaborating with faculty colleagues to design new ways to teach writing, whether in the McDonough School of Business, in the College’s science departments, or elsewhere on campus
• Partnering with a range of campus projects, including the Center for Multicultural Equity and Access, the Prisons and Justice Initiative, and The Capitol Applied Learning Labs
• Conducting research on writing at Georgetown
