Public Engagement and Science Communication
The Public Engagement and Science Communication (PESC) group contributes to education and research for stimulating informal education and increasing scientific literacy for all in society. In addition to our research, we provide up-to-date science communication education for a variety of student cohorts. We are leading in national and international networks of science communication teachers and active in the area of open science and communication skills in higher education.
The main strategic aims of the PESC research group include:
- To provide excellent teaching in science communication;
- To increase the impact, visibility, and reach of our teaching and research within UU;
- To increase the international recognition of our research in Public Engagement and Science Communication.
