Overview
This course prepares you with the knowledge and skills required to join a growing international workforce within world-leading companies in the science and healthcare communication industries.
Science communication skills can be used to help communicate science content and research to a wide range of audiences, including public audiences, clients, and policy makers. Health communication, which includes medical writing, involves applied communication of medicinal and other health-related content, and is often associated with specialist work with, or for, pharmaceutical companies.

Unlike many similar degree courses you will also learn about specialist scientific subjects including ethical issues in science and healthcare, drug discovery, clinical trials, epidemiology, and the language and challenges in biomedical sciences, in translational medicine, or in a variety of relevant diseases. You will also gain experience in visual and written communication, graphic design, communications across social media platforms, and storytelling and narrative design.
