This course targets doctoral and early-career researchers in legal sciences. The course organisers have noticed an unfamiliarity among the target group regarding the nature of argument-driven articles, which are the standard format for articles in highly-ranked international law journals. Simultaneously, much of the practical knowledge regarding article drafting, redrafting and peer-reviewing remain “silent knowledge” within the faculties. As such, many senior faculty members possess valuable knowledge but do not necessarily get a chance to share it with younger peers outside of direct supervisory relationships.
This course is an attempt to redress this issue through identifying, addressing and critically assessing the practical stages involved in writing a journal article. The course aims to utilise the knowledge available in a way that is advantageous both for the direct target group (early-career researchers) and for more senior academic staff. Furthermore, the course teaches the participants to engage in a constructive review of their own writing as well as that of their peers.
Participants are asked to draft and work on an article during this course. The expectation is that each participant has an article ready for submission by the end of the course – which will form part of the assessment. The course involves working individually, in smaller and bigger groups.

The course the participants can:
a) Reflect on their motivation for doing a PhD in law and consider future work possibilities;
b) Reflect on the differences between a monograph and an article-based thesis;
c) Identify a meaningful research question and its importance for a successful PhD project;
d) Discuss their own research questions and preliminary choice of research methods;
e) Reflect on their own work methods, organisational and time management skills;
f) Discuss the supervisory relationship and how to formulate and communicate their needs for support;
g) Identify common problems and ‘survival strategies’ in academic work;
h) Critically reflect on the ‘publish or perish’-trend in academia and how it affects PhD researchers.

This short course is intended for early career researchers from BSc to postdoc level. It introduces the recommended procedure for preparation of research manuscript towards publication, and guides the researcher through different stages of this process.
After the course, the participants will be able to:
- report the necessary steps for preparing a research manuscript
- describe the strategy for constructing each section of the manuscript
- implement this strategy to complete an entire manuscript draft
- use softwares for preparation of manuscripts, figures and citations
- evaluate the quality of research manuscripts prepared by others
The course is organised as part of Sustainable Materials and Manufacturing (SUSMAT) research initiative, a UTU Profiling Area (Profi 7).

The overall goal of the course is to develop understanding on the role of a human element in information security and privacy. The participants understand and are able to analyze and minimize the information security and privacy risks arising from human activity. They are able to understand the effects and dimensions of artificial intelligence in human cyber security.The students will understand the importance of their digital footprint, and how online and offline activities contribute to their digital footprint, and further impacts their security and privacy. And, understand the contributions of awareness, attitudes, perceptions and individual factors towards their security and privacy related behaviors. The students will be able to perform risk analysis in different cyber security contexts. The students learn to critically retrieve, analyze, and synthesize information, and jointly produce new information and present it in the group. The students also learn team building and management skills.
The course strengthens the following working life skills: presentation skills, creativity, multi-professionalism, problem solving skills, organizational and coordination skills, project management, information and communication technology skills, networking skills, communication skills and cooperation and negotiation skills.
