UGM Arabic Study Program Holds Academic Writing Workshop to Prepare Students for Undergraduate Thesis Stage
Yogyakarta, 27 November 2025 – The Arabic Study Program at Universitas Gadjah Mada held an Academic Writing Workshop for students of the 2023 cohort who are entering the thesis preparation stage. The workshop featured Adwidya Yoga, M.A., publishing manager at the Bureau of Journals and Publications, Faculty of Cultural Sciences UGM, as the guest speaker.
The workshop aimed to equip students with a comprehensive understanding of effective academic writing techniques, covering both undergraduate thesis composition and the preparation of publishable journal articles. In his presentation, Adwidya Yoga emphasized that academic writing requires precision, a strong logical flow, and a well-structured research strategy. He also clarified the differences between an undergraduate thesis, a master’s thesis, and a doctoral dissertation, enabling students to recognize the analytical standards expected at the undergraduate level.
Adwidya further elaborated on the essential components of journal article writing, including topic selection, research storytelling, source exploration, the use of clear and effective academic language, and strategies for identifying credible journals. He highlighted the importance of building a coherent research narrative through a structured format consisting of introduction, methods, findings and discussion, conclusion, and abstract.
In addition, the speaker shared practical tips on avoiding predatory journals, identifying indicators of journal credibility, and understanding the peer-review process before article submission. Students were also introduced to various writing and reference management tools such as Zotero, Mendeley, DeepL, Grammarly, and VOSviewer to support more efficient and accurate academic work. He underscored that the use of technology and AI tools must be accompanied by ethical responsibility, including the inclusion of a Statement of Originality and AI Tools Fair Use in the publication process.
Through this workshop, the Arabic Study Program at UGM reaffirmed its commitment to enhancing students’ academic competencies in a practical, forward-looking manner. This initiative is expected to strengthen research literacy among the 2023 cohort as they enter the thesis-writing stage with greater confidence, and to encourage the production of scholarly work that is high-quality, credible, and relevant to the development of Arabic studies and the humanities.
