This course is especially useful to young scientists who want to learn how to communicate clearly with a wide range of audiences. We will cover several genres in this course (e.g. thesis/dissertation, scientific paper, and poster). We will also combine analysis with production to help you improve your scientific communication skills. Topics we focus on in this course include organization, presentation, and correct English style. |
