Another year has flown by and we are welcoming AcWriMo, the Academic Writing Month, to Surrey again.
AcWriMo is an international initiative that takes place in November. It promotes, supports and celebrates academic writing. The Doctoral College has yet again prepared an exciting AcWriMo programme to help doctoral students and early career researchers at Surrey make progress with their writing projects.
Take a look at the schedule below and sign up for any events you are interested in.
