Current undergraduate students

Our fulltime and student staff will be busy in the next few months sharing about programs and initiatives we've been undertaking recently with students and faculty. 

Come see us present these sessions at the University of Waterloo Teaching and Learning Conference on April 27 and 28: 

This workshop will teach you strategies to engage your audience, structure your argument, and integrate analysis into your op-ed to help you craft a piece that is both persuasive and exciting for your audience to read. 

Ileana Diaz, a PhD Candidate (ABD) in Geography & Environmental Management is the brains and organizer behind the BIPOC Virtual Writing Café.

The Writing and Communication Centre is excited to announce the return of in-person appointments! Beginning on March 14, when booking your appointment with us, you have the option to choose an in-person or a virtual appointment with most advisors. Please note that some advisors are continuing with virtual appointments only.  

We're so impressed with the brand-new student-run Journal of Undergraduate Health Research (JUHR) here at UWaterloo, which was founded by two undergraduates. The journal aims to give peer-reviewed publication opportunities to undergraduates in any health-related field. We're thrilled to be able to support JUHR by providing workshops for both the editorial team and for student authors.

Hey undergrads! Are you stuck on a draft and need some feedback? Working to a deadline but can’t book an appointment at the WCC?  We’re here for you with our email tutoring service. Get feedback over email on your papers, reports, resumes and cover letters, presentation slides, or any other writing or communication assignments! Available Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

Have you ever wondered how to use Twitter to talk about your research, or how to make your presentation pop? Did you know that we have an advisor who specializes in teaching University of Waterloo students to do exactly this kind of thing?  The Writing and Communication Centre's Multimodal and Public Scholarship Program Developer, Elise Vist (they/them) is a specialist in all things related to multimodal and public scholarship.
