Presenting Science
Science in the spotlight – effective, accessible and understandable.
What you can expect in our workshop
Whether it’s a lecture series, public dialog or science slam – researchers often have to communicate their topics clearly and effectively. This format shows you how to structure a presentation professionally, structure content to suit the target group and present it in a visually appealing way, whether using PowerPoint or other forms of presentation. In addition to methods for content design, the focus is also on your own appearance. Through practical training, participants learn how to present themselves confidently and present their topic in a convincing and understandable way.

- Core message – getting to the point
- Target groups – knowing and reaching the audience

Presenting Science: Available formats
Our courses and seminars are available in various formats, tailored to individual learning needs. Whether face-to-face, virtual or as a digital self-study course – each format specifically promotes the development of skills in science communication.
In-person Workshop
Direct exchange and practical application: our face-to-face workshops offer a focused learning environment with a real break away from the daily work routine. The focus here is on direct exchange with trainers and the group. Interactive exercises and practical methods make the content tangible and firmly anchored. The intensive learning experience leaves a lasting impression. Our workshops take place either at your institution or in the NaWik seminar room.
Online Training
Location-independent learning in the virtual classroom: our online training courses bring participants together online at fixed seminar times. The units – two or three half days – can be easily integrated into everyday working life. Each training session is accompanied live by two trainers and takes place in small groups to enable intensive exchange and individual feedback.
Our Trainers
Our trainers come from the fields of research, journalism and professional science communication. What they all have in common is many years of experience in communicating with target groups beyond the academic world and a passion for passing on their knowledge and experience in our seminars.
