The BA Media Fellowships are intended to raise awareness of the media amongst scientists; they are not intended as a springboard into science communication or journalism. We expect Fellows to return to their career and share their experiences with other scientists. Those who are considering a career change should see theAssociation of British Science Writerswebsite for details of courses in science communication and journalism.
