During their studies, students write various types of documents, including reports, term papers, proposals, bachelor's theses, and master's theses. How should these types of texts be structured? What characterizes them, and what distinguishes them?

"Reading for Genre" helps answer these questions. With "Reading for Genre," you review several texts of the same genre, meaning the same type of text, such as a bachelor's thesis.

While reading, pay particular attention to the purpose, function, content, language, structure, and design of the text. This will give you an impression of this text type. 

Would you like to look at old bachelor's and master's theses to get an impression of the text type?
