The Academic Writing Service
As a student at the Swedish Defence University, you have access to the Academic Writing Service, including one-to-one consultations, workshops and seminars.
Open lectures and workshops
The Academic Writing Service arrange open lectures and workshops about academic writing, speaking and study habits.
Consultation on study techniques and writing skills
Consultation is offered via the digital meeting platform Zoom.
The consultation is an opportunity to ask questions about study habits, study techniques, as well as academic writing and speaking.
You can also receive feedback on an oral presentation or a paper that is part of your studies.
A specialist from the Academic Writing Service reads parts of your text, around two pages if it is a take-home examination. If you are writing an academic paper, you can obtain feedback on several occasions.
Please note that your text will not be corrected. Instead, you will get help to improve the text on your own. The consultation is about 45 minutes long and you can visit the Academic Writing Service multiple times during the semester if you wish.
Book a consultation
You book a consultation via the Academic Writing Service consultation page in Canvas. As a student you should already be added and you will find the consultation page below Courses in your Canvas space. The consultation page is named Academic Writing Service.

More information regarding consultation and how to book an appointment is found on each consultation page.
The SEDU to launch its own Academic Writing Service
From 1 January 2026, the SEDU will open its own Academic Writing Service. For students, this means even more accessible supervision – not least because we will have a full-time academic writing tutor. We will continue using the same booking system, and supervision will, as before, be offered both online and on site in our own facilities.
