The Writing Lab works closely with HSG faculty and programme directors.
For students
Writing matters — whether during your studies, or in academic and professional life. The HSG Writing Lab helps you to develop your writing skills and to build your writing confidence.
Writing is a process that can be learned and continually improved. Our mission therefore is to develop new teaching methods and tailored support for academic writing. We also organise events and workshops on specific writing issues and offer individualised writing guidance.
Coronavirus Update (Sars-CoV-2):The Academic Writing Helpdesk (HSG Library) will be closed.
But we provide online services, please contact: schreiben@unisg.ch for academic writing advice.
In order to protect the health of HSG students and staff as best as possible, the Academic Writing Helpdesk (HSG Library, Tuesdays 5-7 pm) will be closed.
If you have any questions about academic writing or need assistance, please e-mail to schreiben@unisg.ch. You may also arrange telephone or Skype consultations via this e-mail address.
The HSG Writing runs a weekly Academic Writing Helpdesk in association with the HSG Library: Tuesdays, 5–7 pm (Library Foyer)
For faculty
Academic writing is a complex activity that can be developed and continually improved. Coursework, however, often leaves little time to explore, practise and provide feedback on the writing process.
The HSG Writing Lab caters to these needs by providing a range of tailored support: specially designed teaching materials, workshops on specific writing issues and writing coaching for students.
