About the Program
Are you a professor at a university, community college, or technical school who is passionate about science communication and writing but lacks the time to teach it in your curriculum? Sciworthy’s professor partnership program is designed to help.
How it Works
Our unique, self-paced, online writing course can be integrated into your syllabus, allowing your students to hone their writing skills while reading and summarizing scientific studies. Our team of editors will work with your students to polish their writing, with the goal of publishing their summaries on our science news website. This opportunity allows students to showcase their work to a wider audience.
Our program is open to graduate and junior- or senior-level undergraduate science courses, as well as individual research groups, both inside and outside the US. You can be as hands-on or hands-off as you wish, and we can provide you with ideas on how to incorporate the program into your semester schedule. See what past participants have written!
The benefits our participants are most excited about:
Students receive English writing and grammar lessons, gain experience reading primary literature, and learn how to communicate science to non-scientists. They also receive real-world experience working with professional editors. They can also have their articles published on our site, which adds to their resumes and enhances their future career prospects.
Professors do not have to spend time separately teaching writing — we do that for you with our online course and editing pipeline.

Important: We’re a non-profit organization, but we do charge a per-student fee for participation, which covers our editors’ time and allows us to continue providing this service. Please reach out if you have any questions regarding this aspect of the program.
