Fellowship Aims and Components
The IS Science Communication Fellowship Program will help train and prepare STEM and journalism graduate students to be effective science communicators who are skilled at engaging the general public in an ongoing dialogue about and understanding of science and advancing science education for the public good.
The fellowship will take place during the academic year, and it will offer participants real-world training working closely with The ASRC communication team and CUNY Journalism faculty on a variety of science communications content (e.g., science writing, digital content creation, public engagement, science advocacy and more) and will require completion of a culminating project that generates lay friendly science content and proliferates fellows’ learnings to their non-fellow student colleagues.
