The intent of this course is to prepare students for conveying Public Health technical communications, i.e., the presentation of specialized information in an accessible way to a variety of audiences. Specifically, the course will focus on the process of writing (including the planning, drafting, and revising stages) and looking carefully at the work that goes into the final polished product.
