Writing and Publishing for Graduate Students in Agriculture

1 credits · Graduate

Scientists are professional writers. The stories we tell are based on hypotheses, facts and conjectures, but are stories nonetheless. The structure and style can differ depending on the purpose of the story, be it a proposal, a manuscript or a review paper, but they all involve weaving together evidence to present a coherent narrative. The purpose of this course is to introduce aspects of structure and style that contribute to effective story-telling and to practice scientific writing.
