Sure. And if we want to break NOR into individual
field-specific
guidelines, it changes. But a general principles of research and
writing class? That's an English class in almost every University. I
know, because I've taught it. And NOR is a general principles of
research and writing policy.
Perhaps in universities where students study a wide range of subjects.
In UK universities, most people never go near the English department
but almost all of them will learn how to do academic research and
writing (often as you go along, rather than in a specific class on
it).
