The course aims to better equip you for writing abstracts and papers to scientific conferences within Organizations and Management Studies. The course includes practical training in writing conference abstracts and papers in English, assuming that mastering these challenges is an important step towards later publication.

The course runs in two parts on 29 September, 2008, and on 15 April, 2009.

Prior to the course, the participant selects, in collaboration with his/her supervisor, a specific conference, to which she/he wants to submit an abstract. This abstract is submitted to the course organisor(s) and circulated among the participants no later than 19 September, 2008, by uploading it on the CBS course sitescape. Please mention in the abstract the concrete conference you would like to attend.

On the first course day in September participants will be introduced to material, which describes how to write abstracts and papers, examples of ‘the good text’ and of accepted abstracts and papers. The participants’ abstracts - submitted before the deadline - will be discussed at the course.

After the first part of the course, the participant finishes the abstract and submits it to the specific conference.

The second part of the course takes place 15 April, 2009. For this session participants write conference papers based on the abstracts from the first part of the course. It is submitted to the course organisors and distributed to the participants no later than 1 April, 2009, by uploading it on the CBS course sitescape. The design of the course will correspond to that of a real conference, and participants will be performing the roles of presenter and discussant. The teachers will function as convenors. The feedback on papers enables the author to finalize the paper before sending it to the conference (if the abstract was accepted for the conference). If you did not get your abstract accepted, but still want to join the second part of the course, your are welcome to do so.

PhD students, who have earlier attended the course, are welcome again this year.
