As Engineering students, you will be using the APA 7th referencing style. 

Why do we reference?

 

At university you are expected to reference information sources used in your assignments. Referencing is important as it:

  • gives credit to authors
  • shows that you’ve done your research  
  • means that others can find the resources you have used .

Referencing Software

 

UTS Library supports RefWorks and EndNote.

RefWorks

RefWorks is a cloud-based reference manager that can assist your referencing. It can be used to create reference lists and in-text citations. We recommend this to undergraduate students. 

EndNote

EndNote is suitable for researchers and can be a helpful tool when undertaking a scoping or systematic review.

To learn more about EndNote, visit the Library pages linked below, have a look at our EndNote videos and sign up for our EndNote workshops!
