SCC Start

The Science Communication Center (SCC) is the central institution for strategic science communication at TU Darmstadt. It bundles communication, marketing and art under one roof. It is based on the Darmstadt model of science communication.

Scientists are the most important communicators within an institution.

The institution must offer these scientists legal, psychological and media-related support in order to enable the best possible model of participative-authentic science communication (Enable + Empower).

Successful science communication sees the other social stakeholders as partners on an equal footing. It contextualizes and ideally creates a multidirectional transfer of knowledge within the framework of co-production.
