This course focuses on professional written and oral communication in English in the scientific field. The course will be structured along the typical tasks and processes around an academic conference: call for proposals, abstract writing, poster presentation, roundtable discussion, paper writing, proof-reading, editing, peer-review. The final task will be the submission of a short paper (including literature review and optional secondary data). In addition, there will be a focus on debating as well as one unit on job application in the academic field.
