Professional Writing Track for MA and Ph.D. Students
Students enrolled in ENGL graduate programs at the MA or Ph.D. level can pursue the Professional Writing track. Students who are interested in applying for admission to our department’s graduate programs in English and focussing on TPC can review the application guidelines and timeline here at the MA level and here at the PhD level, as well as the focus areas of our Rhetoric and Writing faculty.
Graduate Certificate in Technical and Professional Communication (GCERT TPC)
For individuals who hold a Bachelors degree of any kind and wish to develop skills in TPC, but do not wish to enroll in our full Rhetoric and Writing MA or Ph.D. program, we offer our Graduate Certificate in Technical and Professional Communication. This 15-credit Certificate is available as a stand-alone credential or can be pursued within an enrolled students’ current MA or Ph.D. plan.
If you are a community member who feels that enhanced skills in TPC would benefit your current career or help you pivot to a new one, or if you are a UNM employee who wishes to develop TPC skills while using your tuition remission benefit, please peruse the information about the GCERT here, where you will find the link to apply.
