The Science Communication Project @ISU was founded in 2010 with the goal of enhancing collaborative research on, education for, and the practice of public science communication, broadly conceived. Our biennial symposia- which include public presentations of multidisciplinary research and interactive workshops- bring together a network of scholars who share interests in public engagement of science, environmental communication, natural resource management, and agriscience. Conference proceedings showcase research, evaluations, and critiques of science communication-related practices and phenomena.

Abstract
The fields of science, technology, and technical communication are increasingly international and global in nature; thus, people working in these fields must learn to effectively and ethically communicate with people from other countries and cultures. This paper explores the ethics behind teaching global communication to science and professional communication students, and preparing them for such interactions.
