The main objectives were to determine i.) their awareness and perception towards their academic writing needs in English, ii) the strategies that they adopted to deal with the challenges in academic writing, and iii) whether they felt the need for the inclusion of academic writing courses in their course work. The study was a mix of quantitative and qualitative methods where the participants responded to both objective and descriptive questions. The findings revealed the perceived problem areas and the challenges that they face while writing, the strategies they adopt to deal with them and the lack of awareness of academic writing needs among the scholars. Finally, it highlights the ‘want’ for the inclusion of effective academic writing courses.
