The multidisciplinary Writing Assistance Program offers several advantages: Non-specialists

  • find it easier to detect gaps in argumentation because they cannot bridge these gaps with specialized knowledge
  • ask questions, thereby helping writers envision the basic assumptions of their subject
  • can concentrate more strongly on the activity of writing and less on the content.

Subject-specific services enable

  • The development of subject-specific content
  • Responses to subject-specific questions (for example, types of texts, citation styles, and the specific expectations of supervisors, if applicable)
