Have you completed a technical Bachelor’s degree? Would you like to share your knowledge with young people or adults? Then the Master’s in Science Education and Communication is the programme for you!

The Master’s in Science Education and Communication will help you discover how to combine science and technology with education and communication. You’ll learn how to make scientific and technical knowledge accessible to a variety of audiences, for example through simulations or using digital whiteboards. The programme has two specializations: science communication or education.

The Science Education specialization is tailored to your situation and requirements, and geared towards your knowledge, skills and interests. This forms the framework for acquiring the teaching skills you need. You will also complete an internship at a school, where you will put your new skills into practice. You will obtain a teaching qualification in mathematics, chemistry, physics, computer science and/or design/NLT.

In the Science Communication specialization, you will discover how to inform target audiences about science and technology. At the University of Twente, you will focus on the role of dialogue, experts, the public domain and interaction. You will keep up-to-date with the latest developments in your field, and at the same time you will hone your skills in science communication.
