The Howe Center for Writing Excellence (HCWE) supports departments and programs in developing proposals for Advanced Writing courses or designing Advanced Writing courses.

Our semester-long Faculty Writing Fellows Program provides a way to develop an Advanced Writing course with other colleagues while learning about writing pedagogy and best practices. We also offer workshops to support your efforts to advance the written communication competency in your Global Miami Plan (GMP) courses (or any course), or we can work with you individually. Please contact Elizabeth Wardle (wardleea@MiamiOH.edu) to discuss your needs.
