ENVS 131 - Communications for Environmental Professions

This course provides a practical introduction to effective communication in written, visual, and oral forms. You will learn to strategically consider the purpose, audience, channel, and style of your communication, and understand its connection to broader cultural, political, academic, and professional contexts. An iterative design process will encourage revision and refinement of your work through collaboration and peer feedback. Practical exercises, case studies, and interactive tutorials will help you develop the ability to communicate complex environmental issues clearly and persuasively to diverse audiences. This course integrates Indigenous knowledge and perspectives and is tailored for students in the Faculty of Environment.
