Welcome to Professional Communication B (2025)

Hello,
Welcome to the offering of the Professional Communications course for PhD students at Aalborg University.

Communication is a core skill for all professionals, and the ability to convey complex information is essential for success in a PhD and beyond.  There are many dimensions to effective communication; this course is intended to help PhD students become aware of those dimensions, and to develop their competencies to prepare them for communicating in research contexts. 

Presenting at a scientific conference is a common feature of the PhD experience, and as such it will be used as the case study for this course.  Participants will work through the context of a public presentation, considering the format, the poster and/or slides to support such a talk, the social media environment to share such a talk, and the skills involved in delivering the talk itself.  Finally, the course will give participants a change to implement these skills and to receive peer feedback on their efforts.

The course will combine both theory and practice, sharing underpinning concepts as well as practical advice on how to become comfortable with communicating in a professional research context.

The course will be held over three full days,
