What is the story of your research? How do you share your discoveries? Who is your audience, and how can you attract and persuade them to engage with your research? This unit focuses on communicating Humanities research and the value of the Humanities in the 21st century. Students will develop advanced communication skills, such as oral presentation, academic writing, scholarly collaboration, professional communication, and public engagement.
