The material for that course has been expanded and divided up to form two new courses, of which this is one (the other being “Scientific discourse in English”). Those who have previously taken the course “General English for Natural Scientists” do not need to retake either of these new courses.

Assessment:

  • 2 x assessed essays during the semester worth (together) 25% of the
