Literature Review Writing
Graduate students demonstrate their knowledge of the research in their field through literature reviews. In addition to organizing and synthesizing other scholars’ contributions to a particular research topic, these papers highlight areas that need further investigation. Gaps highlighted in the literature review provide spaces in which graduate students’ research will contribute to the literature currently published in their field.
