Om emnet

Undervises ikke studieåret 2024/2025

Faglig innhold

Writing and communicating are essential skills in many contexts. In various professional works, the dissemination of research-based results can be important within occupational and/or academic communities. More and more people are engaged in various projects at different levels, in which are typically published in non-peer reviewed reports. A substantial amount of this information could be available for many more, as well as be scrutinized by others, if it were written and published in accordance with international standards for scientific writing. Writing and communicating scientific materials are also of vital importance for positions at universities, as well as for searching grant funding and ethical approvals to undertake new research projects. The goal of writing and communication is thus to provide knowledge and skills necessary for the dissemination of scientific results in various formats, as well as getting experience in basics for writing grant- and applications to ethical committees.
