Scientific Writing in English for Publication

Aim

The course provides the participants with skills and tools to write citable research papers for publication in English. Unique for this course, the participants receive extensive individual feedback on their own papers. The course will focus on:
- designing and organizing a scientific article for publication. Participants should have finalized much of the theoretical and technical aspects of their own research and have, at least, some results
- finishing a scientific article for publication. In other words, the course is "goal oriented" - making your paper publishable.
