First course

Off we go...my first course is Scientific Communication.  I've written myriad of papers over the years, especially for my MS programs.  After 3 weeks, I can say this course is a challenge for my mathematical mind.  I like to explain things thoroughly, and sometimes thoughts come to me spontaneously.  This is problematic for published scientific writing, as I am finding out.  I am learning to edit and revise frequently, and to look for concise language and proper structure.  I'll keep you posted how the course ends in 5 weeks.  

I am excited that I have already registered for summer and fall courses, and I have submitted my degree plan to my advisor.

Course 2: Research Design
