Academic Writing Requirement

Strong reading, writing, and research skills are essential to academic success.

The Department of English currently offers two courses, ENSH 101: Themes in Literature and ENGL 102: Literature in Action, that meet UVic’s Academic Writing Requirement (AWR). In the 2024–25 academic year, we will add ENSH 103: Writing, Culture, Power to our list of courses that meet the AWR.

To see the fascinating variety of English AWR courses on offer, visit the detailed ENSH 100 Level Courses page.
