At the UMB Writing Center, we support student writers and faculty who teach with writing across all seven schools. We view writing not just as a set of skills, but as a reflective and strategic process essential to learning, research, and professional practice. Through empathetic and inclusive engagement, we foster a supportive environment grounded in respect and access. We offer consultations (online and in person), writing groups, workshops, and a robust library of resources — all designed to guide writers and educators at every stage of their development.
Schedule a consultation, join an accountability group, and find help with all of your writing needs.
Students
As faculty, it is more important than ever to ensure your students have proper writing skills. The Writing Center can assist with student writing assessment and give you advice on how to advance your students' skills.
Faculty
If your current writing projects leave you feeling overwhelmed, a writing community could help you stay focused and motivated. The Writing Accountability Group supports writers by carving out dedicated time to write, sharing interprofessional resources, and providing a friendly forum where you can articulate your research.
The Writing Center hosts helpful events, including weekly writing lounges and the Writing Accountability Group, as well as specific programming for PhD students and faculty.
