課程概述 |
This course will help to prepare students for presenting or applying for positions in English speaking settings and conference/publication outlets in the fields of social and behavioral sciences and other related professional disciplines. |
|
課程目標 |
Students will obtain practical skills regarding how to submit their work in English for publication or presentation consideration. Course participants will also obtain feedback regarding how to write professional correspondences (e.g., cover letter and emails) and CVs and have a chance to practice job interview skills in English. The course will end with feedback on students’ professional presentations. The course will have a focus on the skills particularly useful for those who are interested in becoming a professional in social and behavioral sciences but the skills will be relevant for other related fields too. |
