Working on your text
Please note: Given that this is a hands-on workshop, you need some data to serve as the foundation for a journal article. Please also bring some scientific texts written by you (e.g., Master thesis, as well as any published or upcoming papers) to the seminar. We will in the course focus on subject-specific journals in the field of engineering, such as mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and chemical engineering.
