This knowledge will give you more confidence in communicating to your students the roles of science in society, and equipping them with the skills necessary to make evidence-informed decisions.
 
You'll start by gaining an introduction to interdisciplinary science teaching as you explore resources and practical strategies that support working with other disciplines. By the end, you'll have the tools to help ensure the next generation of scientists is more aware of what the sciences can - and cannot - do.
