Description
The Master's Degree in Science Communication aims to train, with high quality, personnel to promote communication in institutions that have a strong scientific component in their activity (for example, research centers, clinical centers, museums, science dissemination institutions, among others). Developing internal and external communication of institutions through different platforms, creating international communication networks and training people in effective techniques to communicate what they do are, hence, some of the objectives. It is also intended to provide students with multidisciplinary knowledge to enable them to do an in-depth investigation in this field. In short, the MCC aims at excellence in scientific and technical training within a national and international framework, working, on the other hand, in articulation with several institutions of a regional and national nature, permanently promoting a close relationship between the academic environment and society.
Key learning outcomes
This master aims to provide a multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary training that privileges flexibility and diversity in order to provide students with scientific and technical skills, necessary for an adequate professional and scientific performance in the field of science communication. The training of students for the critical application of concepts and techniques to communicate what is done in a given institution, which has science as its structuring axis, constitutes the main vector of this formation. The curricular component favors this duality between theory and practice in order to provide the student with a knowledge that enables him to know how to do effectively.
