Cite Them Right & Grammarly

CITE THEM RIGHT ONLINE (CTRO)

Learning how to reference correctly is an extremely important step towards achieving academic success. Here at Middlesex University Dubai, different referencing systems are used for various programmes. Law students are urged to use OSCOLA, psychology students refer to APA, whereas students enrolled on other programmes use the Harvard referencing style. In order to provide students with the correct referencing guidelines, the University offers its students free access to ‘Cite Them Right’ – an online platform with a complete guide to the referencing systems used at the University. Students who access the site remotely will need to ensure they are logged onto their MyUniHub. Students who access through a University computer will be automatically directed here. If you are accessing CTRO from home, please follow the steps below:

You should then see the Cite Them Right page with the message “Access Provided by Middlesex University”
