Our mission

The academic writing program at UNYP is comprehensive, reflecting the vision to prepare students for a high level of university writing and beyond. This includes composition courses for the development of excellence in writing essays, research papers, journal articles and academic theses.

Our instructors are all highly qualified professionals – many are trained in ESL as well as being published authors and scholars in the fields of education and linguistics. Support for students is given throughout the entire academic journey at UNYP. The University of New York in Prague holds to the philosophy that learning to write well is a profound process. It goes much further than merely putting words on a page. It is learning to think logically and to think critically, while mastering the ability to then communicate this mental evolution effectively.
