Outline |
|
With the globalization of science and technology, it is becoming expected for science and engineering students to have the ability to read and write English scientific papers (scientific papers written in English). The aim of this course is, by studying the contents listed in the course outline below, for science and engineering students to acquire the foundations necessary for reading and writing English scientific papers.
1. Methods of reading the formulae, numbers, etc. which often appear in English scientific papers (<1> addition, <2> subtraction, <3> multiplication, <4> division, <5> ratios, <6> integer, <7> decimal, <8> fraction, <9> rounding)
2. Examples of basic sentences containing words which appear regularly in various fields of science and engineering (<1> physics, <2> chemistry, <3> energy)
