Communicating scientific research methodologies, results, and implications is often impeded by poor writing. Natural Science (NS) Professors at International Christian University (ICU) have long recognised this problem and have expressed their concerns to the Director of the English for Liberal Arts Program (ELA). A series of meetings between professors from the NS Department and the ELA Program led to two science writing workshops being held for science majors who are required to write their senior thesis in English. Following the success of these workshops, a new science writing course was proposed to the curriculum committee. The proposal was accepted, and a new course entitled “Senior Thesis Science Writing” was offered for the first time in Fall AY2017. This paper describes the background, workshops, and new course design, and concludes with a reflection on difficulties faced, and suggestions for how the course may develop in the future.}, pages = {1--9}, title = {Implementing a New Senior Thesis Science Writing Course}, volume = {32}, year = {2018} }
