Do you need help with your academic writing?

GUPSA offers students support with their academic writing via our editing service which has recently been recognised as the ‘Education Initiative of the Year’ by the Councils of Postgraduate Associations Inc. (CAPA) and the National Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Postgraduate Association (NATSIPA).

GUPSA editors-in-residence Maureen Butler, Evie Rosenorn and Leanne McKnoulty are happy to assist and there’s no cost to you; it’s a free service provided by GUPSA. You may submit any work directly related to your program of study at Griffith University. This is a service offered to students enrolled at the Logan, Mt. Gravatt, Nathan, and South Bank campuses; Gold Coast students have their own editing service available.

Want to improve your academic skills? GUPSA provides a FREE series of 2 hour AKA/HACKA Academic Skills workshops for you.

Presented by Nina Ginsberg, there are 4 workshops in the series: The Postgrad Critical Thinking Toolbox, Successful Academic Writing & Style for International Students, Structure, Coherence & Cohesion, Get your Journal Article Published . Each workshop in the series is stand alone so you can do all or one or in between as appropriate for you. The workshops are open to both coursework and HDR students although the Journal Article workshop is probably more relevant to HDRs and other students with a substantial research component to their degree. The second workshop is also more suitable for international students and students for whom English is a second language.
