How literature review writing works for Heriot-Watt Dubai briefs

Heriot-Watt Dubai sets its own house conventions for how academic writing should look. Our editor walks through three things before the writer drafts: which citation style this module requires, which submission portal your work goes through, and whether your professor has communicated any module-specific preferences from earlier in the term. Those three filters change what the writer produces — generic essays score worse than module-aware essays at Heriot-Watt Dubai.

Citation conventions at Heriot-Watt Dubai

Heriot-Watt Dubai modules typically expect Harvard, IEEE, OSCOLA. Our editor confirms the exact variant — Anglia Ruskin Harvard vs Wollongong Harvard, APA 6th vs APA 7th — before drafting begins. The wrong sub-variant is the most common reason citation marks get deducted.

Submission and integrity tools

Heriot-Watt Dubai submissions run through Canvas, Turnitin. We deliver in the file formats your portal accepts and check our work against the same integrity tools your professor will use — so what you see in the report is exactly what they'll see.

Turnitin and AI at Heriot-Watt Dubai

Heriot-Watt Dubai uses Turnitin for both similarity checking and AI Writing detection. Our policy is the same here as everywhere: we don't use AI drafting tools, so AI detection isn't a risk we hedge against — it's a problem we don't have. Every delivery includes the Turnitin reports as proof.
