CLIC: Writing skills: Writing for Engineers (PhD students)
New

Tue 15 Oct, Tue 22 Oct, Tue 29 Oct 2024

Description

Unfortunately, since most interested PhD students can’t attend on this day/at this time, the course will not run in the format planned. Instead, those who have registered for/are interested in the course will receive a series of individual writing supervisions that can be scheduled at a time/day of choice as per need. Email Nicola (nch23@cam.ac.uk) with any questions.

Three face-to-face group workshops are followed by 1 individual supervision per participant. The workshops address common errors related to writing dissertations and publishing papers in terms of style, structure and accuracy, including discussion on the use of AI in academic writing. The individual supervision provides personalised advice for improvement. If you are unable to attend but would like writing support, please email Nicola (nch23@cam.ac.uk) to make alternative arrangements.
