Introduction

Having spent an extensive amount of time learning the ins and outs of the design sprint process, I can safely say that this next course will be more my speed! From what I understand, it’s much more simple in its execution and teachings, containing lots of writing, citing, and plagiarism checking that equals a straightforward approach to how work is completed compared to design sprints. Usually, the graduate-level introductory course, Foundations of Graduate Studies, is intended to assist incoming master’s and doctoral students in making the move into graduate school and succeeding in an advanced academic setting. To give pupils the tools, abilities, and attitude they need to succeed in their postgraduate studies, it typically covers academic research, writing at a scholarly level, critical thinking, ethical and moral research, and using institutional resources.

Graduate level writing and communication is one of the areas that Foundations of Graduate Studies focuses on. Students are taught how to properly format their research papers such as a bibliography, in formats such as APA and MLA. Websites like EasyBib help check for plagiarism, cite sources correctly, and correct any grammar and/or spelling mistakes.
