In a joint project of the Writing Centre of the University of Constance and the Language Competence Centre of the Zurich University of Applied Sciences, all students and faculty of the University of Constance were asked to participate in a survey with the European Writing Questionnaire. The EWQ is a multilingual electronic tool to study academic writing practices with a special focus on contrastive analyses of writing cultures. The parallel item construction of the questionnaire allows comparing the data of students and faculty on similar issues. The report briefly outlines the situation of student writers at the University of Constance and then gives an account of the most interesting results of the undergraduate Bachelor degree programs as well as those of the study program Law which awards a Staatsexamen degree. Results show clear differences for many variables between the three disciplinary groups into which the university is divided (Sciences, Humanities, Politics/Law/Economy). Evaluations of students and faculty converge in many ways but show marked differences in the assessment of student language and writing skills. Student data show a high increase in the positive evaluations of their own writing skills during their studies (comparisons between 2nd and 6th semester). The genre descriptions which the faculty members were asked for (all of which are documented) show a clear preference for scientific over reflective and professional genres. Results of the study are discussed in terms of their implications for the writing centre work at the University of Constance. ; In einem Kooperationsprojekt des Schreibzentrums der Universität Konstanz und des Language Competence Centres der Zürcher Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften wurde eine Befragung aller Lehrenden und Studierenden der Universität Konstanz durchgeführt.
