Abstract
Science communication is a type of communication that occurs between scientists/engineers and the general public. It has many variations ; however all of these are characterized by the fact that they take place outside of the normal social context and require an explicit form of participation if the communication is to occur. There are two categories of science communication : communication as an extension of an institutional conversation and communication as a conversation in more contingent circumstances. It is necessary to train people involved in science/engineering in both of these approaches. This paper demonstrates the latest attempt to provide science communication training at Tokyo Institute of Technology and discusses the significance of both approaches.
