Are you interested in learning to communicate your environmental scholarship to diverse audiences? The seminar ENVS 1965 enables students to build communication, leadership and engagement skills, and to gain a broader perspective on the challenges of understanding global environmental change and the search for solutions.
The course is required of all students who receive an Environmental Fellowship, and is open to other seniors – as well as graduate students – engaged in environmentally relevant projects. Development of an environmentally-focused senior thesis or other independent research project is a prerequisite.
Each student leads a session focused on the science and policy elements of his/her independent research project. The seminar also offers students opportunities to hone practical professional skills, e.g. how to communicate scientific findings to the media and policy audiences; oral presentation skills, and tips on professional interactions. Please contact the lead instructor, Heather Leslie, for more information.
