Communication School

In times of fake news and increasing mistrust of science, science communication is essential and is increasingly becoming an integral part of scientific practice. Whether communicating with the public or within the scientific community - targeted, convincing and comprehensible communication of research projects and results promotes trust in science, communication between scientists and applications for funding.

Whether written, rhetorical or visual, the Communication School provides young scientists with a wide range of communication options.

The Communication School supports early career researchers in developing skills in science communication and helps them to become communicators themselves. The one-week further qualification program offers the opportunity to choose three key areas of communication from nine workshops and to develop their own communication concept. At the end of the program, the young scientists can try out any format of science communication and present their research at the public closing event.
