概要:
This Scientific and Technical English course offers a wide range of scientific topics and a variety of activities in order to enhance English skills essential for science major students to conduct academic research in English.
授業の進め方・方法:
Except for translation exercises, class sessions are held entirely in English.
Each week completes one unit of the text book Advances in Science, and two chapters of two books titled A Shorter Course.
Students will be given an opportunity to make an individual presentation in the later part of the course, and asked to submit term paper at the last class.
Because this course grants academic credit as opposed to school credit, there will be coursework to be done outside the class.
注意点:
The course schedule is subject to change.
Before attending the class, students must complete the required reading of the textbook Advances and come to class ready to play an active role.
There will be a 20-minute individual presentation and a 1,500-word paper as coursework. Students will be later notified of the details on these assignments.
Since this course is elective and intended for students at advanced level, students must carefully weigh up their own English proficiency before signing up for the class.
