Being able to transform scientific information into accessible, understandable knowledge for the public is the key business of a science communicator. Science communicators combine skills in written and verbal communication with their scientific knowledge.
Science Communication provides you with experience in new media, written, oral and visual presentations, science performance and working with industry experts. It teaches you to communicate effectively with audiences ranging from children to scientists. Learn the principles of effective science communication, develop practical skills necessary for effective science communication, and design strategies that address communication needs of groups such as government organisations, informal museums, science centres and research centres. You will gain an understanding of the theory underlying the discipline and be able to apply their knowledge to a research project.
