Workshops and Thesis Support Programs

The Graduate Writing Center offers a variety of workshops and programs throughout the year. During the summer, we offer various dissertation "boot camps" for graduate students working on dissertation proposals and dissertations. For master's thesis writers, we offer a master's thesis mentoring program. See our web page on thesis support for more information.

Writing Consultation Appointments

The GWC offers FREE appointments with friendly, experienced writing consultants to all registered UCLA graduate and professional school students. Consultation appointments are interactive, collaborative sessions. Writing consultants are happy to work with you on issues ranging from organization and argumentation to grammatical issues, but they are not proofreaders or editors. Our goal is to help you become an effective writer in your field.
