Overview

Capitalize on scientific knowledge for the public good. Get the skills to discern scientifically valid information and effectively use that information to improve lives at the Science Translation and Outreach (STO) Program at the University of Kentucky.

Our digital world overwhelms us with information, so much so that the public is often unable to discern scientifically valid information and, most importantly, to effectively use that information to improve lives.

Transdisciplinary thinking is recognized by The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine as fundamental to achieving breakthroughs in food and agricultural sciences. Successful transdisciplinary programming would be grounded in multiple, relevant natural sciences, but it would also benefit by being grounded in the social sciences, in order to facilitate successful dialogue.

Students will learn to:

Assess public needs and interests with respect to agriculture, food and environment;

Identify, sort and interpret credible scientific information from diverse fields relevant to public concerns; and,

Use scientific information to create successful programs in applied research and outreach which effectively address public concerns.
