During the workshop, participants will draft part of their current writing project (e.g. a journal article or a thesis, 1-2 pages). Therefore, participants are asked to select in advance which writing task they want to do during the workshop. This workshop will be offered in English. Following the workshop, participants can contact the HSRM Language Coaches (englishforstaff@hs-rm.de.) for further support.
