Career Development

The series contains three individual workshops which can work as a sequence or as standalone sessions. They are open to all graduate students, and space is limited to 20 participants per session. Bring a writing project-in-progress that you can work on during the timed sessions and learn how to create better writing habits for yourself.

Join us for a special series with Dr. Emily Troscianko, a visiting scholar with the English department at UCSB this year, as well as a coach, writer, researcher, and creator of Oxford University’s first writing program.

The series is intended to work as a sequence, so please feel free to sign up for all three but they will also work well as standalone sessions. They are open to all graduate students, and space is limited to 20 participants per session. Bring a writing project-in-progress that you can work on during our timed sessions and be prepared to be without your phone, social media, and email for the duration, including the breaks. A communal phone tin will be provided!
 
These events are sponsored by UCSB’s Graduate Division in collaboration with the Office of Research and the Literature and Mind Center’s Trauma-Informed Pedagogy project. They will contribute to campus-wide learning about how to help the classroom be more conducive to learning and thinking. As such, they will involve information-gathering from event participants after signing up for an event, as well as at the start and end of the event. You can read more about the project here. If you decide to register for one or more events, you will be asked to read the information carefully before deciding whether to take part. Please contact Emily if you have any questions.
