Course Objectives To provide postgraduate students with active help with the writing of scientific material in English such that they leave the course at a standard where writing of Scientific English has improved and is as good as possible Outline This course last 9 weeks only and each class will be limited to 6 students. The class will consist of lectures, writing, editing and criticism of the following parts of a scientific paper written by the student on their own research including: abstract/introduction, materials and methods, results and discussion/conclusion. Note that figures/tables/references may be included as the student wishes but are not essential. Furthermore, the amount of material included is likely to vary greatly from student to student and will depend on where they have reached in the research. NOTE: the amount of material is NOT important. Each lecture slot will be 2 hours and time will be tight to finish the course. There are planned variations that will help if problems develop. Assessment The presentation of a model scientific paper by the postgraduate student on his/her own research. Completion of these assignments will provide a full pass for this course. The amount of research that has been done by each student will vary. This is not important, but the student needs to write up as much has he/she has available for each assignment. The timetable provided is only approximate. Returning Assignments Please make sure that you have your student number and name (Chinese characters & English) at the top of each assignment. Please send the assignment by E3 (the new e-campus) as the first choice (this links you directly to your Yang-Ming Chiao-Tung course marks) or, if this is not possible, e-mail a copy to either ralph_kirby@icloud.com with the subject box marked “Advanced Scientific English A” and your student number. This will allow easy identification of the email and who it is from. Your name in English or Chinese characters does not allow easy cross referencing with the mark sheet that contains all class members. If you are from outside Yang-Ming Chiao-Tung, an e-mail to me may be essential.
That the student is registered for a research Masters or PhD degree
