Improve your science communication skills
Make your research easy to understand, present your findings in a compelling way and convey a confident image to the media: Improve your communication skills with the courses from the Communication Academy. The course programme for the Spring 2025 Semester is now online.
The Communication Academy is a continuing education programme for science communication. Through the Academy, ETH’s Corporate Communications aims to raise awareness among scientists of the great opportunities as well as the inherent risks of science communication and enable them to communicate their research in a comprehensible and compelling way to a non-scientific audience. With it, ETH Zurich contributes to a constructive dialogue between science and society.
The courses offered by the Communication Academy are aimed at doctoral candidates, postdocs, senior scientists, and professors of ETH Zurich as well as the four research institutes PSI, Empa, WSL and Eawag.
The course programme for the Spring 2025 Semester can be found here. Doctoral candidates, postdocs, senior scientists, and professors can register for the courses from 27 January to 17 February 2025. Pre-registration is not possible. Please register only if you really want to participate and read the registration conditions carefully.
The courses offered by the Communication Academy are free of charge. No ECTS credits are awarded for them. However, anyone who completes one of the workshops will receive a certificate of attendance.
