Art of Writing cultivates and supports the craft of writing at UC Berkeley.
Our seminars, workshops, tutoring programs, and events build a collaborative writing community across the disciplines, and approach writing as a teachable art.
Art of Writing's small, interdisciplinary seminars at Berkeley provide a space where future data scientists, lawyers, engineers, sociologists, artists, and writers sit together and explore how writing intersects with the intellectual worlds they inhabit.
Art of Writing is collecting writing assignments for a pamphlet on Teaching Writing in the Age of AI. These assignments are devised either to work creatively with undergraduates' use of AI tools or to circumvent AI reliance in the classroom. Contribute your own writing assignments here.
Townsend Center for the Humanities Executive Director Rebecca Egger discusses student successes and Art of Writing's expansion into social science and STEM courses across the campus, with the conviction that good writing belongs in every discipline.
