Workshops

Do you need basic information on academic writing or related topics? Are you looking for new strategies for learning and writing and would like to try them out in a group and receive feedback from other students?

Take advantage of the Writing Center's online workshops: our tutors will support you with academic writing - specifically for your current writing project or in preparation for your next writing assignment: you can find an overview of the current workshops and information on how to register under "For students" > "Workshops".

From winter semester 2024/25, the Writing Center will also be offering workshops, events and lectures on academic reading and writing in English specifically for international students as part of theSTUDYSMART network project. Enrollment takes place via the OPAL course STUDY SMART.
