Registration and grant application are open for the third edition of
JCOM Masterclasses, the short, intensive training courses to empower
scientists, senior-middle managers of cultural institutions and other
professionals to communicate science through different media to various
audiences.
The four courses – each one lasting five days – include theoretical
presentation, practical workshop and peer-to-peer learning. Speakers are
leading professionals in the sector, researchers in science
communication and experts at an international level.
Participants will improve their personal skills in various fields of the
communication of science – from the development of interactive
exhibitions to the conception and management of a visitor centre, from
the facilitation of discussions on controversial issues to the
communication of personal research. Participants will have the
opportunity to present their own projects and discuss them with
colleagues and tutors.
The four Autumn 2016 courses will beheld from September to December 2016
at the Adriatico Guesthouse of the International Centre for Theoretical
Physics, Trieste (Italy).
Standard fee is Euros 950, but 30% reduction is applied to many
institutions and members of a number of international networks. A
limited number of ICTP grants are also offered to scientists and
professionals working in a developing country. The ICTP grants cover all
participation costs.
