Academic Writing Month (AcWriMo)

Welcome to Academic Writing Month (AcWriMo)!

AcWriMo is a themed month that brings together researchers from across the university to focus on topics relevant to academic writing and to get writing done. The Researcher Development Academy (RDA) in collaboration with other researcher support teams, creates a diverse range of workshops for researchers around topics related to writing and publishing. This year, our sessions include a panel about what makes a good thesis, responding to reviewers and how to be a reviewer, blogging your research, what you need to know about authorship, multiple Shut Up and Write sessions, and more!

One of AcWriMo’s highlights is a 3-day writing retreat that is being held at;

  • Deakin Downtown (Melbourne CBD)
    Tuesday 24  – Thursday 26 November

All Deakin researchers are welcome!
