Library Help: Academic Skills
Can you look at non-academic work such as my CV, course application or funding proposal?
Answer
No. The Academic Skills Team are experts in writing for assessment. This encompasses typical genres such as essays, reports, reflective writing, case studies, dissertations, posters and presentations. We can also help with other types of assignment if they are set as assessment as part of your course.
The Careers Service is your first port of call for other types of writing such as job or study applications and CVs. Your Personal Tutors, supervisor and research networks are best placed to offer advice on external research and funding proposals. If you have been set a piece of creative writing as part of your course, one of your specialist course tutors will be most appropriate to offer help and guidance.
