課程大綱	This course aims to familiarize doctoral students with those technical concepts and guidelines that are essential to all kinds of academic writing in English: how to organize a stand-alone paragraph and a short essay, what characteristics should a piece of good writing contain, what is the correct process for academic writing of whatever length, etc. After the mid-term week, the teacher will also introduce the conventional structure of an abstract and ask students to evaluate and revise several abstract samples. To ensure most of their sentences are grammatically correct in academic writing, students are required to do all exercises in the main textbook as well as a supplementary grammar book at home. (If you are interested in taking this course, be sure to attend the first class to know all requirements and regulations in detail. If you cannot do so, it is advisable not to take the course.)
