Clever Sci Comm HSRW

Science communication is much more than communicating science and at Rhein-Waal you will discover that our course is much more than studying for a degree.

You will explore science communication as an interaction between science and various stakeholders in politics, the economy and the general public. You will be part of a multi-cultural learning experience that reflects the ideals of the course and the backgrounds of its students. You will develop key skills not just in communication but in data analysis, critical thinking, and innovative approaches in an ever-changing media landscape.

For all this it is essential to foster a critical but evidence-based approach to media practice, science policy and even science itself. The need for such an approach is greater now than ever before in an age of “alternative facts” and “post truth” politics.

Companies and universities are also having to face the challenge of reconfiguring their old public relations activities into new public engagement strategies which promote Corporate Social Responsibility and bring publics into the research process.

This is the new world for which you will be uniquely prepared.
