Scientific Writing. What Makes a Good Paper and How to Write It (two-day) [ONLINE WORKSHOP]
The event will be held in English and run for two days, on June 2 and June 3, 2025.
Publications of research results is the currency in modern science. It might not be your favourite occupation, but it is a decisive one, strongly determining your future research and career opportunities. In this course, you will be introduced to the process of writing a scientific paper. In order to deepen and apply this knowledge, you will also actually produce a manuscript based on your research data (and one that might serve as the foundation for a journal submission). Questions about other forms of text like conference papers can also be discussed.
A-Z of scientific writing
- Developing a clear main message
- Priority setting in the writing process
- Structure and logical flow of the text

Please note: Given that this is a hands-on webinar, you need some (analyzed) data to serve as the foundation for a journal article. Please also bring some scientific texts you wrote (e.g., Bachelor or Master thesis, and any published or upcoming papers) to the workshop.
This event is open to doctoral researchers and postdocs at KIT who are KHYS members.
