पाठ्यक्रमबारे सारश

This program offers a unique combination of written, oral, and visual communication theory and practice as they apply to interdisciplinary areas of science and technology. It examines how communication is a complex process that involves both the robust principles of audience, persuasion, clarity, accuracy, and ethical integrity, and a command of the knowledge of scientific and technical topics that one communicates. Students have the opportunity to examine social, legal, ethical, and political implications of communication as they relate to science, environment, gender, technology, diverse cultures, and workplace practices.
