OEHS 7081 - Writing and Communication

This course is designed for graduate students who are beginning the process of writing their thesis/dissertation. The course will teach students basic grammar rules and language functions while also developing their ability to write at an academic level (e.g., synthesizing information, organizing ideas, ensuring content flow). Other foci of the course include giving a professional presentation, creating and presenting a poster, and communicating science to audiences outside one’s field of study. Students should be prepared to give and receive peer feedback in a professional and productive environment.
