How can we cultivate essential science communication skills in our students? In this session, we will explore science communication as a necessary skill to develop for undergraduate students. We will consider the importance of engaging in effective science communication with the public, the diversity of audiences who receive communications about scientific topics, and the inherent challenges associated with working with these diverse groups. We will highlight strategies and useful tools we can apply in our quest to educate the next generation of strong science communicators.
