Join us on our next Journeys in Research Writing course, which starts on 7July 2025.

Normally a week-long face-to-face course, this will now be online via MS Teams over a period of 2 weeks from 9am to 2.30pm Monday to Thursday. Navigating Research Writing is open to all postgraduate or prospective postgraduate students and researchers.  
During the course we aim to help you: 

• Understand and articulate your research in an exploratory written product of your choice (e.g. concept note, proposal, or literature review
• Develop a research identity in dialogue with an exciting group of experienced researchers 
• Learn how to make use of databases in the library
• Make arguments and sustain a strong writing voice
• Complete online writing tasks to reflect on your research experiences 

You will also have the opportunity to join a Just Write session each day.

There is a small fee for the course, R600 for UCT students and R1200 for external participants.
