AWC Welcome Day

AWC Welcome Day is a wonderful opportunity to learn more about the Center and our services.

At the beginning of each school year, we run interactive workshops where experts in academic communication and experienced authors share their experience. The Day aims to show that writing an academic text in English is a challenging but doable task with the help of the Center. The AWC team members also hold workshops and presentations to spread the word about the Center, clarify all the details, and share plans.

Our doors are always open, and you are already invited to the next AWC Welcome Day in 2024!
