Communication of STEM to Diverse Stakeholders

Abstract

Communication of STEM to diverse stakeholders is a versatile necessity within the engineering field due to its complex nature and wide variety of audiences. This study explores the various stakeholder audiences and how communication is most effectively generated, communicated, and received to its respective communities. In closer detail, this study will research the following stakeholders: researchers, students, politicians, and community members. The study will investigate the various mediums that can be utilized to present difficult STEM jargon and news. These mediums will be studied through the advertisement of the RIDER program. This research is vital to society, specifically in the engineering community, because of the disconnect between the technicality of the work engineering projects possess and the general population’s awareness, comprehension, and support of those projects.
Key Words: Stakeholders, community engagement, communication mediums
