Upcoming Workshops
Writing to Make Things Happen
Thursday, May 14, 2026
12 to 1 p.m. EDT
Virtual via Zoom
Description: Impactful writing makes things happen in the world. Early on in school, students often focus on achieving a grade. But when we move into advanced study, impactful writing becomes a way to make things happen—we use it to create and share knowledge, participate in communities of scholars and researchers, advocate for and communicate our ideas. In this workshop, led by representatives of the Drexel Writing Program and Drexel Writing Center, we'll think about what impactful writing can help you do in the world, discuss some of the challenges of writing in graduate school, and share concrete resources to support your large projects. Graduate Writing Consultants will introduce themselves and their areas of study and expertise, as well as demonstrate how to sign up for Drexel Writing Center consultations.
