The Science Circus is also a university course.
The Shell Questacon Science Circus team are also students of the Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. This one year course is based in Canberra at The Australian National University (ANU). Most of the students are granted scholarships and study at the Centre for the Public Awareness of Science (CPAS) within the university.
The students come from all over Australia and they bring their own unique knowledge, energy and passion for science to the program. The scholarship package exceeds $21 000 and applications close on August 31st every year.
Please contact CPAS if you would like to apply to join the Shell Questacon Science Circus team next year. A course outline for the Graduate Diploma in Science Communication can be found at the GradDipSciComm page in the Graduate School Handbook for the ANU. Past students have used the course as a starting point for a huge variety of science communication careers.
Information about other other science communication courses can also be found on the CPAS website.
