NEW COURSE ANNOUNCEMENT: SCIENTIFIC WRITING 

das

This course provides a basic introduction into scientific writing. It is given by Prof. Dr. Franz Faupel together with professionals from Thieme Publishers, particularly Dr. Thomas Kast. Prof. Faupel has a longstanding expertise in scientific writing. He is co-author of more than 400 scientific papers and Editor of the Thieme online encyclopedia RÖMMP for the field of materials science. Dr. Thomas Kast is Executive Editor of RÖMPP and Thieme Chemistry Journals and has been working since long in editorial teams of Thieme and other publishers assisting authors in improving the quality of their papers. Kathleen Too, designated Senior Vice President of Thieme Publishers, will give an introduction and motivation.

No matter whether you aim for an academic career or strive for a position in industry, profound writing skills are indispensable. The course is based on learning by doing. It starts with two introductory lectures. Subsequently, the participants select keywords on latest developments in materials science that are not already covered by the RÖMPP or keywords to be updated. Student participants will get a supervisor, who is expert in the field, together with each keyword. This could be a professor, a postdoc, or an advanced PhD student, generally from Kiel, but external experts can also get involved. Moreover, the students can make their own suggestions for keywords. They will get free access to the RÖMPP during the course and up to the publication of their keywords if applicable. An initial list of keywords and assigned supervisors will be provided prior to the start of the course. The list will be extended during the course. The work of the students will be supervised by the individual supervisors. Moreover, the students can discuss the progress of their work and related questions in regular weekly meetings or upon appointment with Prof. Faupel and, where necessary, with Dr. Kast.

The final keywords of sufficient quality will be published in the online encyclopedia RÖMPP together with a mini CV and photo of the authors, who will also get a honorarium. Contact Prof. Faupel, ff@tf.uni-kiel.de, for further questions.
