Language and Academic Skills Unit (LASU)
The Language and Academic Skills Unit (LASU) in the faculty of
Law and Management assists students to present university standard
work. Discussion prior to writing and during the writing process
makes writing much easier. It can help to reduce frustration and
loss of precious time used for rewriting.
The LASU works with coursework students
as well as research students. Coursework students can make individual
appointments to discuss academic skills and/or form study groups
that will be supported by LASU.
To develop thesis writing skills research
students can receive help with planning and structuring individual
chapters, general writing skills, reference conventions and editing
skills.
