TWP Courses
The Thompson Writing Program's primary course offering is Writing 101 (20): Academic Writing, which is a one-semester course taken during the first year by all Duke University undergraduate students.
Writing 70 (10) is a summer course to help students prepare for Writing 101 (20).
Writing 293 (191) is independent study in writing. Students can work with a TWP faculty member to continue a project from their Writing 101 (20) course, or do a different kind of writing-intensive project.
Writing Studio
You can get help with any aspect of a writing project--from brainstorming about research questions to polishing your drafts at The Writing Studio.
Writing in the Disciplines (WID)
The TWP helps support and develop a variety of WID courses, staffed and housed in a diverse range of departments throughout Duke's undergraduate programs. Trinity College students are required to take to 'writing intensive courses (W'-coded) in order to graduate.
More information about the W code and the other curricular requirements under Curriculum 2000.
