On Track is our programme of workshops, designed to help you maintain your work-life balance and provide practical information and support for your academic development and research.
The workshops focus on academic skills, self-development and wellbeing - perfect if you're working on your dissertations, independent research projects and much more.
We always want your suggestions on how to improve the programme: get in contact with the Community Engagement team at pgcommunity at warwick dot ac dot uk.
About to start writing up your dissertation, thesis or group assignment?
This workshop will teach you all the best ways to use Microsoft Word to format and present long documents. Learn how to best present your writing and how to save precious time doing it!
Find out how creative writing can help you relax, recharge and stay focused in the short-term, and support reflection and personal growth and enhance your sense of self.
This interactive session will help you to understand what plagiarism is, the consequences of plagiarism, and how to avoid committing it. It will also cover the key referencing techniques and tools to help you in your writing up.
We have collated all the resources from 2018's On Track programme into On Track Online, an online course on Moodle for those who were unable to attend the sessions or are looking for more resources and information.

The programme is organised in collaboration with a number of different university departments including, IT Services, Academic Services, Wellbeing Support Services, and the Library's Academic Support Librarians.
If you still require academic support, we recommend that you contact Student Careers & Skills to arrange a drop in session or to attend one of their workshops. You can also find resources and advice from the Academic Writing Programme.
Our Academic Support Librarians can help you with literature searching and referencing advice. Find out more about the referencing with Endnote Online and attend a workshop to familiarise yourself with this software.
For wellbeing support, attend a wellbeing drop-in or contact Wellbeing Support.
Need specific support or unsure where to go?
Let us know if there's a service or department that you would like to know more about or that other postgrads and researchers could benefit from and we will look into arranging a session.
