A McGill Guide to Scientific Writing
During summer 2020, MSWI collaborated with faculty members, TAs, and students to produce a concise guide to scientific writing. Especially with the upcoming virtual semester, our writing guide aims to help students and staff adjust to writing-centric assessments.
We have chapters dedicated to:
-
Vocabulary
-
Research articles
-
Lab reports
-
Citations
-
Tables and figures
-
And more!
