Academic Support Centre (ASC)

The Academic Support Centre works to support students in the first and second cycles of study with study skills and academic writing in Swedish and English. This is done through consultations, workshops and lectures on topics including study skills and academic writing.

Each faculty has an Academic Support Centre contact person to ensure that the Centre's range of services is equally available to all students at Lund University. 

Book an activity with the Academic Support Centre

Does your faculty or department need support regarding academic writing, reading or study skills? If so, you can send a request for a group activity via our online form. 

Send a request for group activity with the Academic Support Centre

Please submit your request at least two months in advance.

NB! Remember that the director of studies or equivalent must be involved in booking the activity. The Academic Support Centre processes requests in the order in which they arrive.

As the client for the activity, you are responsible for

  • Booking a room in TimeEdit, once the lecture has been confirmed by the Academic Support Centre.
  • Ensuring that details about the venue and time are sent directly to the language and study consultant when planning the activity. It is important to make sure the language and study consultant can access the room, whether it is physical or digital. 
  • Communicating any changes to timetables and course planning that affect the lecture to the language and study consultant.
  • Informing the language and study consultant about how the activity is related to the course and what written assignments are connected with it.

It is preferable that the course director responsible is present. By having both a language and study consultant and a course director present, the activity can have a greater value for the students.

A PDF version of the presentation can be sent to the course director after the activity, for publication on Canvas. If some students require special support, we can provide the presentation prior to the activity. If you need the presentation ahead of the lecture, please inform us as soon as possible.

If a lecture is to be recorded or live-streamed, this must be stated at the time of booking, so that the language and study consultant knows in advance.

Further support within the University

  • Doctoral students are referred to the university-wide HR activity “Finish on time” and to the support offered by their faculty.
  • The Student Health Centre has resources and is responsible for activities to address procrastination.
  • Professional development for teaching staff falls within the remit of the Division for Higher Education Development.
