Description Registration deadline 9 February in KSL. Registration is binding.

The course is based on the book “Writing Science” by Josh Schimel. Presence sessions take place about every two weeks (see dates below). In-between sessions, students write on a text of their choosing (BSc, MSc thesis), read book chapters and implement the lessons learned into their writing. Presence sessions are composed of peer and mentor feedback on students’ texts, exercises, discussions of book chapters and lessons learned, and analysis of exemplary papers. Parts of two sessions will be dedicated to the application of AI in scientific writing and writing strategies.

If place allows, the course is open to PhD students.
