Get Writing: Thinking about colonialism and how to write a university-style essay

Join Oriel's Outreach team and Oriel PhD students to learn more about colonial history, the specifics of our current essay competition, and top tips needed for researching and writing like a university student.

In the second event of this three-part series supporting entrants to the Rex Nettleford Essay Prize, we will be looking at what colonialism means, plus tips for writing essays - including content on creating an argument, writing structure, and constructing a bibliography.

It is not expected that all attendees will enter the competition, and the session will offer beneficial advice for any students wanting to develop study skills for sixth form and university.
