大众传播文学硕士-科学与健康传播

科学与健康传播专业计划旨在教育科学家和健康专家通过媒体进行有效沟通，并向大众媒体专家教授背景科学，以将科学和健康的语言转化为对受众有意义且易于理解的故事。这些目标是通过理论写作和应用课程来实现的。该计划的至少两个方面使其在全国科学传播计划中独树一帜。首先，美国其他现有的科学传播计划都注重培训记者。UF的计划向希望专门报道科学和健康的记者开放，为计划作为科学和健康组织，其他传播专家以及需要这样做的科学家担任公共事务或新闻官员的人员提供培训能够与公众交流他们的工作。其次，该计划侧重于培训学生以了解和有效地交流
The Science and Health Communications specialization program is designed to teach scientists and health specialists to communicate effectively via media, and to teach mass media specialists the background science to translate the language of science and health into meaningful and understandable stories for their audiences. These goals are achieved through theoretical writing and applied courses. At least two aspects of the program make it unique among science communication programs nationwide. First, other existing science communication programs in the U.S. focus on training journalists. UF's program is open to journalists who want to specialize in covering science and health, offers training for people planning to work as public affairs or public information officers for science and health organizations, for other communication specialists, and for scientists who need to be able to communicate with the public about their work. Second, the program focuses on training students to understand and communicate effectively about science and health policy.
