ENV 244 - Scientific Writing & Presentation

This course will help you to further develop your communication skills primarily by focusing on biological and environmental topics. You will strive to be both a skillful consumer and provider of scientific and technical information related to issues, problems, and solutions in those disciplines. You will compare how information is presented to a lay audience versus the scientific community and practice those written, verbal, and visual skills. This course will help you to develop your communication skills through practice and revision. However, you need to realize that clear, effective communication requires continuous practice, well beyond a one-semester course.
