Improve your assignment grades by visiting the Study Hub and accessing free professional support to develop a wide range of relevant and valuable academic skills.

Three teams of specialists: Academic Liaison Librarians, Microsoft Office Trainers and Professional and Academic Development (PAD) Tutors can help you develop your academic skills and improve your assignment writing and preparation techniques; leading to better grades and enhanced employability.

Learn what information you need for your assignments, how to find it and assess if it's relevant and reliable. Then use the techniques you have discovered to manage your time effectively and improve your academic writing style or your presentation skills.

You will find a wide range of online guides to help you. These cover key areas for success such as library resources, referencing, academic writing, maths, study skills and how to optimise your use of Microsoft Office products.
