Academic Writing, 3 credits

The course aim is to provide an understanding of what a scientific study is. Aspects like ethics and moral are addressed as well as scientific credibility and validity. The course also provides a more hands-on writing technique where formats for publication, reference systems, structure and content are discussed. Published scientific articles are used as a basis for the discussions, but also own text is created by the students. The course is intended as a guide to the degree project, but also to further research studies.
