Webinarreihe zu Wissenschaftskommunikation und -journalismus
Erdwissenschaften Alumni
Das Departement Erdwissenschaften hatte die grosse Ehre, zwei Webinare mit Frau Stephanie Schnydrig, selbst eine ETH Earth Science Alumna, durchzuführen. Frau Schnydrig hielt zwei äusserst informative Vorträge - den einen auf Deutsch, der andere auf Englisch - zum Thema Wissenschaftskommunikation und -journalismus.

Journalism versus communication
Geophysicist and science journalist at the Swiss News Agency Keystone-SDA, Ms. Schnydrig began the seminars highlighting the key difference between the careers of science journalism versus science communication and lead insightful discussions on reporting science in the era of ‘fake news’.
Ms. Schnydrig then outlined possible entry paths to each career. For this purpose, she gave valuable advice and summarised her own experience transitioning from science to communication and finally to journalism.
After a fruitful question-and-answer session, the webinar transitioned to a social aperitif where attendees could exchange ideas and discuss in small, virtual ‘breakout groups’.
Insightful webinars
Both events were well attended, and interesting discussions made the evening complete. We thank Ms. Schnydrig for the wonderful and insightful webinars and look forward to hearing more from her in the next seminar series, ‘self marketing for geologists’, taking place in July.
