Overview
This two-day, academic writing workshop is for anyone who needs to write and publish academic texts in English.

The workshop takes place over two days, separated by two weeks. In this time, participants will have the chance to read and comment on each others’ texts.
Target Audience
The workshop is for graduate students who wish to develop confidence in their English writing skills.
