The Course guides and advises early career researchers in scientific writing for targeted peer reviewed journals. Students develop papers based on their own research – typically a masters’ thesis. They work in small groups reviewing one another’s work and revising and re-drafting their manuscripts with support and input from the teacher. By the end of the Course students are expected to produce formatted draft documents suitable for submission to a peer reviewed journal of choice.Eligibility requires either one- or two-year masters’ qualifications in public health (MPH), health care or health education. Students and alumni from EpiGH are the target group. Applications and enrolments are processed by Umeå University. Students residing outside the European Union (EU) or European Economic Area (EEA) are required to pay University tuition fees (12,367 Swedish Krona).The majority of students enrolled in EpiGH masters’ courses are from low- and middle-income countries. In 2019 the Taylor & Francis Company (T&F) introduced a Scholarship Fund to pay tuition fees for up to ten non-EU/EEA students to enrol in the “From a Thesis to a Paper” Course each year. This report is in accordance with section 4.4 of the contract between T&F and Umeå University which affirms this financial support. See Appendix A.
