    ¿De qué sirve formarse en periodismo científico cuando no se trabaja como tal? Encuesta entre graduados del Programa de Ciencia y Técnica de la Fundación Instituto Leloir
    (2016) Matías Loewy; Alicia Calabrese
    In order to spread the progress, dilemmas, contexts and applications of Science and Technology, Science Journalism has been legitimized as a branch of Journalism since half of last century. A growing number of Universities and Institutions are offering specific Science Communication Programs to train professionals with different backgrounds. But what kind of skills and abilities are considered to be useful for those former students who didnt follow a Career in Science Journalism? By means of a Survey among Graduate Students participating in a classical workshop on Introduction to Science Journalism, it was found that 89,5 per cent of those who didnt pursue a career in the field reported having applied that knowledge in their work and personal life. According to their opinion, it is (specially) remarkable the utilization of tools from science journalism and the development of critical reading of newspapers articles in the classrooms.
