This Project Grant from the Department of Agriculture's National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) totals $299,998 under the Higher Education - Institution Challenge Grants Program (CFDA 10.217) to develop an online science communication curriculum for graduate students in food, agriculture, and natural resource sciences (FANH). The Regents of the University of Minnesota will create sharable online modules focusing on effective and ethical science communication skills, critical thinking and decision-making around research techniques and audience analysis, and producing content that conveys complex information across audiences. Partner institutions will develop and deliver the modules for nationwide use starting January 1, 2023, with completion by December 31, 2025. The innovative curriculum aims to enhance instruction quality and prepare graduate students to communicate science publicly, in line with NIFA's goal to strengthen institutional capacities including instruction delivery systems.
