/Themes and goals
(up to 2,000 letters)
The goal is to prepare students for the international research environment by helping them improve their written and spoken technical English. The course covers writing, 80% and conference presentations, 20%.   

In the written English part, students are taught to write journal manuscripts which are clear and easily understood by the scientific community. The emphasis is on the structure of a paper, explaining the significance and novelty of the students' research, as well as appropriate vocabulary and sentence structures.  The main written project is a 1000-word paper similar in style to a conference paper.   The journal submission and peer-review process is discussed, so students understand aspects of a successful paper.

In the oral presentation part, techniques for giving effective technical presentations are taught.   Slide design, the forms of spoken English, effective graphs are discussed.   If time allows, students will give a final oral presentation.
