Music: Academic writing

Learning and language advisers assist students in improving their academic language and approaches to learning.

They conduct online consultations at which undergraduate and postgraduate students can discuss their individual study needs with a learning skills adviser. Drop-ins are held in all campus libraries, and no appointment is necessary.

You can also sign up for classes that cover diverse topics such as how to reference, how to use Endnote, etc.  Check this site regularly, as new classes are added throughout the semester.

Postgraduate students can also arrange an appointment with a learning and language adviser.

You may also ask at the information desk in any Monash University branch library for assistance, or visit Academic and Professional Writing in the Arts faculty.
