To improve professional communications skills of students, a pilot course in "Scientific Communications" was included as a requirement in the new baccalaureate program in the Department of Radiological Sciences, School of Related Health Sciences, University of Health Sciences/The Chicago Medical School, in 1973-74. During four years, the course has been revised to meet recognized needs of students. Learning objectives and course content are described as an encouragement to other schools to train radiologic technologists in professional communications.
