Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment: Connecting information with your report writing

The purpose of this guide is to help students, faculty and staff find key library resources and starting points for locating information resources available through CPUT Libraries

Information and report writing

When we write, we communicate information. This is true in academia as well as in our personal lives. At university though your writing needs to convey specific meaning, clearly, analytically/critically, and logically. Knowledge must be transferred from what you have learned to your reader.

This is not easy for all of us.

This page will demonstrate how the information you find, understand and apply allows you to write your reports according to the academic writing guides your lecturers have given you.
