SCIENCE 4025 - Professional Communication

A key aspect of communicating well is to present logical arguments and communicate them clearly with a variety of audiences. In this course students enrolled in an honours program will enhance their skills to understand and evaluate arguments and apply these skills in professional communication contexts in both oral and written formats. Group and organisational communication will be considered as will reporting guidelines and the preparation of ethics application. Aboriginal cultural sensitivity and awareness, communication and education practices will also be addressed, allowing students to have an appreciation of different perspectives and ways of knowing.
