[ATTW-L] University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee graduate programs in Rhetoric and Professional Writing and Public Rhetorics and Community Engagement

[Danielle M DeVasto]

Dear colleagues,


I'm writing to share information about our graduate programs in Rhetoric and Professional Writing (M.A.) and Public Rhetorics and Community Engagement (Ph.D.) that are housed in the English Department at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Please consider applying if you are looking at programs, or pass along this information to students and professionals who might be interested. Our application deadline is December 15th and potential applicants can find more information about the programs here: https://uwm.edu/english/graduate/graduate-plans/rhetoric-writing-community-engagement/ and the application process here: https://uwm.edu/english/graduate/graduate-resources/admissions/. They may also reach out to Dr. Rachel Bloom-Pojar via email at bloompoj at uwm.edu with any specific questions they might have. See below and the attached flyer for additional details:


Our MA in Rhetoric and Professional Writing and PhD in Public Rhetorics and Community Engagement are interdisciplinary programs housed in the English Department at UW-Milwaukee. They provide students with a broad background in rhetoric and writing studies while offering opportunities to apply that knowledge in pedagogical, professional, and/or community spaces. According to their individual interests and goals, students can develop in-depth knowledge of community engagement, composition pedagogy, contemporary rhetorical theory, cultural rhetorics, digital rhetorics, multimodal composition, professional writing, rhetorics of science and medicine, technical communication, or writing program administration. We continuously encourage students to critique existing theories and practices, and to develop new disciplinary approaches of their own. Most importantly, the rhetoric concentrations aim to develop a community of researchers, teachers, writers, and administrators who support each other’s work, share ideas, and participate in shaping our program goals.


Thanks,

Dani
