Preparing for Graduate School Academic Writing

Graduate school is all about writing. Are you prepared to write 15-20-page academic papers? How about 200+ pages of a thesis or a dissertation? Do you know how to take a blank page and create a scholarly research project? Without strong writing skills you will not succeed in your master’s or doctoral program. Preparing for Graduate School Academic Writing assesses your readiness for graduate level learning through surveys exercises and succinct introductory lessons on the most essential aspects of graduate writing such as standards style plagiarism source evaluation and online library research skills in a full-color workbook format. As a potential current or returning graduate student you must become familiar with peer-reviewed articles literature reviews abstracts references and annotated bibliographies before advancing too far into your program of study. Otherwise you might get overwhelmed by the expectations to immediately produce this kind of content with very little instruction. Therefore equipping yourself for the rigors of academic writing is worth the extra time and effort to avoid stress confusion or burnout.
