Social Sciences Building 155
This course will introduce students to concepts and techniques for effective communication of scientific findings, both within the scientific community and to the general public.
Students will be exposed to a variety of formats, including systematic observations in field journals, proposals, conference presentations, seminars, journal articles, popular science writing, and interviews.
Students can expect to gain a sense of confidence in writing and public speaking about research. Direct language is valued in scientific writing, but creative approaches to style and structure will be emphasized.
