It sounds stupid to say, but it feels like science is making a resurgence in popularity. It’s hard not to notice when your friends keep liking Facebook posts from “I [expletive] love science.” Science always has been and always will be exceptionally important to the human race, but its popularity seems to vary quite a bit over time. The Society for Science & the Public is a Washington, DC based non-profit that is “dedicated to public engagement in scientific research and education.” They realize that science isn’t just for scientists and that keeping the average person engaged with the study of science can have big payoffs.
The Society for Science & the Public works “to promote the understanding and appreciation of science and the vital role it plays in human advancement: to inform, educate, and inspire.” They do this through two main mediums: a news publication and science competitions. The publication is called Science News (they also have Student Science), and it’s now delivered mainly online. It gets more than 5 million unique visits per month. You can find more information on the competitions here. If you’re already enthralled in reading Science News, take a look at SSP’s Careers page. Right now there are a few positions worth checking out including Science Education Programs-Associate Specialist, Science Writer, Production Coordinator and Copy Editor, and Information Technology Specialist.
