Academic writing is a kind of writing which discuss about a problem, but it is suitable with the fact. Mostly academic writing is used in university. But there are many students think that it is very difficult and it makes students confused. There are many kinds of academic writing, for example thesis, essay, dissertation, technical report, etc.

An academic writing is very important for students in university because it is a kinds of requirements for the students to be able to graduated from university. When we have been in the last semester we are asked to make an academic writing and the results of our academic writing decides for our graduations. Automatically, we must work hard to be able to finish our academic writing on time. in writing of the thesis as are also in writing of the thesis reveals new knowledge by making new knowledge by performing tests on a hypothesis. This thesis is more profound than a thesis. scientific work was written to achieve a master's degree, and the number of pages for a thesis of at least 80 pages (Trimmer & Sommer, 1984). Mostly, when the students are writing an academic writing they find difficulties and they think that it is very difficult.

Academic writing is difficult because it is very formal writing, it is organized and it has rules in its writing  and systematic. Characteristics of academic writing include a formal tone, use of the third-person rather than first-person perspective, clear focus on the issue or topic rather than the author’s opinion, and precise word choice. Writers employing the formal academic style avoid jargon, slang, and abbreviations (Miller, 2006). in writing we must have more knowledge because we can’t make an academic writing without knowledge. A writer is able to not only transform a dry, difficult text into coherent , but also relate it to a given context and convey to their personality (Hyland & Tse, 2004). Besides that we also have clear statement for make academic writing, and many important  in writing such as we must have vocabularies, good grammar, linguistic, summary, etc.   .  

In conclusion, academic writing is very important for students. Every students must know about it because as a student we never apart about writing wherever we are studying. if we know about the academic writing we are not difficult anymore to make a thesis, proposal, and other types of writing. even though many students think that academic writing is very difficult and makes students confused in writing.
