The Program in Creative Writing, more commonly known as the Iowa Writers' Workshop, at the University of Iowa in Iowa City, Iowa is a prestigious college and graduate-level creative writing program in the United States. Writer Lan Samantha Chang is currently the director of the Workshop.

The program began in 1936, with the gathering together of poets and fiction writers under the direction of Wilbur Schramm. Graduates earn a Master of Fine Arts in English; Iowa was the first program in the country to offer this degree.

The program has a minimal curriculum, requiring students to take a small number of classes each semester, including the Graduate Fiction Workshop or Graduate Poetry Workshop itself, and perhaps one or two additional literature seminars. The modest curricular requirements are intended to prepare the student, in a sense, for the realities of professional writing, where self-discipline is paramount.
