Article - Academic reports guidance

This article will give you information on getting guidance on academic reports.

The Academic Skills Unit (ASK) offers a wide range of resources, workshops and tutorials for students to use.

At university, some subjects may require more report writing than others. It is therefore important to understand what a report is and the elements that make up a good report.

The team at ASK have created some helpful guides on academic reports which are available below:

• Some key features of academic reports
• Report and essays: key differences

These are just some of the resources ASK has to offer.

Need further help?

ASK offers one-to-one tutorials, additional online resources as well as workshops on a series of topics throughout the year.

Contact details and opening hours for the Academic Skills Unit (ASK) are available here.

Information on faculty-based learning support and development tutors is available here.

The University regulation is clear that all work submitted for assessment must be the unaided work of an individual student, therefore ASK cannot help you to write your report. However, taking part in ASK sessions will help you to develop your writing skills and tackle any study-related issues. Please also note that ASK is unable to proofread your work.
