The project "Science Meets Media" promotes research and science communication at Hessian universities. The network is aimed at professors and highly qualified researchers from the profile areas and socially relevant research focuses of the participating universities:
University of Kassel (lead)
Philipps University of Marburg
Darmstadt University of Technology
Goethe University Frankfurt
Justus Liebig University Giessen
Our goal is to present outstanding research visibly to the public and to strengthen researchers in dealing with media inquiries. To this end, we offer them coaching and workshops with renowned trainers on specific media formats (interviews on radio and TV, social media, etc.) according to their individual needs, goals and time resources, as well as an exchange with other communicating researchers.
The Hessian Ministry of Science and the Arts is supporting the project with 1.25 million euros from the innovation and structural development budget until 2025.
