Description

Students pursue a project to learn about an area of science communication of their choice - e.g. museum work, web site development, writing for publication - plus project management, extending professional networks, and garnering feedback to improve what they produce. A 'learning contract' determines the scope of effort and the nature of the deliverable product.

Assessments include a log of reflections on communication, science, and professional relationships; a short interim report; and a final product.

Approval for enrolment depends on the project's suitability, and availability of a lecturer to supervise. SCOM2505 and SCOM3505 may be taken simultaneously.
