A special 8-week course has been designed specifically for graduate and post-doctoral students at TcSUH, particularly for whom English is not the first language.

Topics will include:

• Writing for an American academic/research audience
• Organizing and developing ideas
• Writing effectively in forms common to the scientific field
• Revising and editing
• Delivering an oral presentation

Students will study with instructors and work with consultants from the UH Writing Center in lecture, individual, and small-group settings. (This is not a credit-bearing course, but participants will receive a certificate of completion at the end of the workshop.)

Class size is limited to 15 participants in order to allow for one-on-one interaction and in-depth discussion.

The TcSUH PIs will submit nominations to Jacqui Boulavsky by May 8. Once each participant has received notification of his/her acceptance by Mrs. Boulavsky, registration should be completed at the following website: www.class.uh.edu/wconline/workshops/Workshop_Registration.asp
