Blog assignment No 1, Academic English: Why do I study Academic English?

Welcome to my blog!

Why do I study Academic English?

The reason why I am studying this subject is not that I plan to write a thesis or scientific paper for a degree. The main reason is instead that I hope to be a better and more scilled user of the English language by widening my vocabulary and by learning academic terms.

In my work here at Karlstad University, I have worked with and will also work with some translations of different scientific papers, why I think this course will be useful to me also in my professional work.

Furthermore I guess it also might be a formal qualification that could be useful to have in case I would like to work abroad for some time.
