Abstract

Engage is a student-led organization at the University of Washington that trains science and engineering graduate students to communicate their research to the public. Training offered by Engage couples classroom-based learning with a final presentation in a public forum. The Engage approach serves as a model by which students at other universities can gain similar opportunities.
