27.09.2023 r. – 20.10.2023 r. edition II

1. Call for applications:

27.09.2023 r. – 20.10.2023 r.

2. Description of the competition:

On 27 September 2023, we are launching the next edition of the University Centre for Foreign Languages project in collaboration with the Centre for Specialised Languages in Medicine at the Medical College – a series of free language workshops. The proposal is aimed at second-year undergraduates, fifth/sixth-year students of the Univ. of Medical College, as well as UMK doctoral students. The workshops will start in November and will be held either remotely on the MS Teams platform or stationary, depending on the decision of the tutor and the participants. The aim of the workshop is to provide participants with the practical knowledge needed to write and publish an article in English or German.

Within the framework of the workshop, it is planned to launch class groups in English, aimed at representatives of the following areas of science:

  1. Humanities, Theological and Artistic Sciences,
  2. Social Sciences,
  3. Science and Natural Sciences,
  4. Medical Sciences.

Participation in the workshop will broaden your knowledge of how to write an abstract, correctly construct the different parts of a scientific article, use vocabulary and grammatical structures appropriate for an academic writing style and avoid the most common mistakes made when writing in English or German.

In addition to the 10-hour workshop, participants will receive two 1-hour individual consultations dedicated to analysing the draft and final versions of the article.

The course and consultations will be taught by lecturers from the University’s Centre for Foreign Languages and the Centre for Specialised Languages in Medicine with extensive experience in specialised language classes at NCU faculties.

It is hoped that the workshop will result in valuable publications in foreign languages.

Recruitment is open until 20 October 2023 and takes place via email, by sending your application to the following email address: myfirstarticle@umk.pl. Your application should include your name, status (student/doctoral student), course and year of study/area of study/doctoral school. Eligibility for the workshop is determined by the order of application.

Once recruitment is complete, those who qualify for the workshop will be informed by email.

The workshop is funded by the IDUB programme.
