Your Honours Year: Making a First Class Start
In your honours year you are expected to step up to a higher level of research and argument; you will need to polish up your existing skills and acquire a few new ones. The four-session course helps you to do this:
Session 1: General advice on a range of topics such as managing your time and working efficiently.
Session 2: Tips for structuring a long essay or research report.
Session 3: How to improve your editing skills to reach the standard of writing appropriate to honours. This is relevant to students in all disciplines.
Session 4: How to write an annotated bibliography or literature review.

The “First Class Start” is just the beginning of LSC’s provision for postgrads. There are sessions on how to give an oral presentation, how to make a poster, how to use Word for long documents, how to present data, how to manage your time and how to structure a research proposal. If you know that your grammar is a bit shaky, come to our sessions on writing skills.
