Academic Writing

Mastering Academic Literacy

Our workshops in term 3 have been prepared with dissertation writing in mind. However, they are equally beneficial for students tackling different types of assignment. The content includes skills for making effective use of sources including synthesis and voice, and also skills and strategies for writing specific elements of assignments such as literature reviews, methodologies, and discussions.

There are two suites of workshops to choose from - each comprises 7 sessions.

Masters Dissertation Writing (1)

Masters Dissertation Writing (2)

Once you have completed these workshops, why not follow up with some individualised guidance and feedback, by using our writing cafes or one-to-one assignment writing tutorials. Visit the booking page
