Master of Science - Science Communication (P90012)

As well as drawing on the academic and practical experience of staff within the Science Communication Unit, this MSc programme gives students an opportunity to meet a range of visiting lecturers and benefit from their practical experience. This also provides an excellent networking opportunity for students interested in developing contacts among science communication practitioners.

The course combines a solid theoretical background with practical skill development, and has excellent links with the sectors and industries it informs. Visiting specialists also help students understand what they are looking for in future employees.

In the Final year, students may choose to further develop their portfolio, for example by mounting a practical science communication project, or take on a more theoretical or research-based project, perhaps with an external science communication organization.
