The University Writing Committee, or UWC, award for excellence in writing across the curriculum honors academic programs (undergraduate majors) and their faculty who have demonstrated sustained and successful efforts to integrate evidence-based pedagogical practices across an undergraduate major. One award of $20,000 will be given to an academic program to use for faculty professional development. These funds are unrestricted, but the UWC encourages programs to use the money to support writing-focused guest speakers, conference attendance, or research projects.
