English Academic Skills
The English section at the Academic Language Centre offers numerous courses in Academic Skills. These courses are intended to train participants in the use of English writing and presenting skills in an academic context. The courses are aimed at BA students and MA students. In addition, we also offer courses for PhD students and Lecturers. The focus of the courses depends on the nature of the academic discipline. This results in a range of courses varying from, for example, writing for scientists to writing for first-year BA students. While some of these courses can be completed as a standalone course, others are included in BA degree programmes at the Faculty of Humanities. The following courses are available:
For students
- English for Academic Purposes (General)
- Writing for master’s students
- Presenting for master's students
For PhD students and lecturers
These courses are also open to scientists/academics from outside the University.
