This newly developed course is designed for DSP students. Building on participants’ English language skills, the lecturer will develop these skills in the areas of formulation and presentation of scientific themes for professional audience and formulation of project applications. The aim of the course is to improve four English language skills - writing, reading, speaking and listening and to apply them to the preparation and implementation of projects. During the course, students will learn the important features of academic English, ranging from the sentence structure and vocabulary to complex reasoning. Students will gain information mainly by reading, analyses of academic texts and practising the comprehension of various text formats. In addition, students will improve comprehension of project calls in English and formulation of objectives and other summary information on projects, including explanations on how to use specific key words. Differences between the use of language for writing scientific papers and for writing project applications will be explained. Towards the end of the course, students are expected to have critical awareness of their skills to present scientific themes to their colleagues, comprehend the requirements of project calls and to formulate project applications according to requirements to be able to participate in scientific calls aimed at doctoral students and postdocs.
