    This course is open to all students with English skill level B2 or above (according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, CEFR). Scientific English is not spoken as a native language anywhere on the planet (so it is a foreign language for everyone). The course thus invites both native speakers of English and students for whom English is a foreign (or second) language. Please note that this course while offering support for improving basic language skills and increasing respective awareness is not a simple 'top-up' course of English language skills. It is rather a joint exploration into the most basic (and most universal) tool of scientific thought and expression: Scientific English!
