Scientific Writing

As a young researcher, you want to improve your writing, but at the same time you need to dedicate long hours to the research. We are here to offer help.

2025 - 2026

The year 2025 will see a new structure of writing support in collaboration with Leadership Sculptor.

Young researchers receive tailor-made support for their academic writing in a variety of formats. Workshops, individual editing and proof-reading as well as coaching are  possible. Depending on the stage of the paper process, members of the KIT Graduate School Cyber Security will be able to improve their scientific writing according to their needs, addressing challenges and playing to their strengths.

Members are strongly advised to talk to their supervisors while defining the modes of support they need.

All the services provided are optional and targeted towards the specific needs of members of the KIT Graduate School.
