Eastern Oregon University students anticipating graduation must have demonstrated proficiency in writing by meeting the University Writing Requirement (UWR).
University Writing Requirement (UWR)
Eastern Oregon University is strongly committed to the view that
writing aids in learning and that writing skills are key to professional
success. The University Writing Requirement (UWR) requires that
you receive attention to writing throughout your studies and that
you demonstrate your mastery of discipline-specific writing. Beginning
Fall 2004, all newly admitted students must complete the following:
- First-year writing courses required by placement.
- One lower-division UWR writing-intensive course identified by each major, and
- Two upper-division UWR writing-intensive courses as identified for each major.
Questions concerning the UWR should be directed to your adviser. List of courses approved for UWR.
