Reimagining Graduate Education in Writing Studies explores the development of sustainable, equitable, and interdisciplinary graduate programs within Writing Studies.

Proposing five key benchmarks of sustainability in graduate education – accessibility, diversity, interdisciplinary design, situatedness, and professionalization – each chapter speaks to one or more of these benchmarks, offering solutions grounded in both theory and empirical data. The contributors use ethnographic, narrative, and research-informed approaches to provide readers with innovative ways to address the pressing challenges of graduate education in Writing Studies. The central theme of sustainability, defined in this context as the ability to create adaptable, equitable, and resilient programs in response to institutional and economic challenges, runs through each chapter, and the volume provides actionable frameworks for fostering sustainability in Writing Studies graduate education by offering practical, research-based strategies.

Bringing together diverse perspectives from Rhetoric and Composition, TESOL, Linguistics, English Education, Technical Communication, and Writing Centers, this book will appeal to instructors, students, and researchers working in these areas.
