The Writing Program

Computer Science and Engineering Building, EBU 3B, Room 1108

Following completion of the UC Entry Level Writing Requirement, all students entering as first-year students complete a two-course sequence at UC San Diego in Warren Writing (WCWP 10A-B). All students entering as transfers, please see the Earl Warren College general-education section.

Warren Writing courses introduce students to academic argumentation. These seminar-style classes engage students in the scholarly practices necessary for writing in the academy. Students receive individual feedback not only from their instructors but also from their peers. The minimum writing requirement is eight thousand words per quarter.

Ethics and Society

Computer Science and Engineering Building, EBU 3B, Room 1108

Two core courses in Ethics and Society are required of all Warren students entering as first-year students. The courses are PHIL 27 or POLI 27, and PHIL 28 or POLI 28 (see department listings). A student may enroll in these courses through either department. The courses are to be taken immediately following completion of WCWP 10A-B. PHIL 27 or POLI 27 must be taken before PHIL 28 or POLI 28.

Warren College Honors Society

Computer Science and Engineering Building, EBU 3B, Room 1102

The Warren College Honors Society offers students educational, cultural, and social experiences designed to broaden their intellectual interests. The activities vary each quarter and are planned to foster student interaction and promote a sense of community.

Entering first-year students with a high school GPA of 3.8 or above are eligible to participate in the honors society. To remain in the program, students must maintain a cumulative GPA of 3.7 on all graded units completed at UC San Diego.

Students who do not qualify for the honors society at the time of admission, and all transfer students, may join as soon as a cumulative GPA of 3.7 is attained on twelve or more graded units completed at UC San Diego. In all subsequent quarters, students must maintain a cumulative GPA of 3.7 on all graded units completed at UC San Diego to remain in the program. The Warren College Honors Society does not require students to apply to the program or produce research projects in order to continue in the program.
