description
Publishing the first journal articles may be a hard task for young scientists, but is mandatory for obtaining doctoral degree or applying for grants. Combined with little experience in scientific communication, this is often the reason of their PhD studies failure. Engineering and technical sciences are particularly demanding in this subject. The goal of this course is to help Early Stage Scientists for their articles being accepted by the journals with the high Impact Factor (IF) which is the most important indicator of journal ranking.
Course will cover following topics:
Where to present your results
General structure of journal paper
Literature survey, search engines, references, citations
Statistical analysis of the results in brief
General requirements for presenting - images and plots
General structure of extended abstracts for conferences
Your first presentation at a conference - short and long presentations
General structure of extended abstracts for conferences
How to prepare a paper for final format
How to prepare for your first review
Workshop on practicing the presentation the scientific results
Detailed agenda is available here.
The Visegrad Network for Microelectronics Engineering Scientists (VINMES) was co-created by six institutions of science in Europe:
| Budapest University of Technology and Economics, Hungary Czech Technical University in Prague, Czech Republic Institute of Electron Technology Division in Krakow, Poland Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania Technical University of Košice, Slovakia University of West Bohemia in Pilsen, Czech Republic |
 |
The network was established in response to the strong need and interest for publication, support and education of publication techniques. It has been successfully run two projects with one of the main objectives being "enhancing and supporting the scientific publication of young scientists [...], with a knowledge transfer about presentation techniques, article writing, and publication practices". This goal has been realized by organizing courses for postgraduate students starting from 2016.
