Teaching assignments and guest lectures
Our lecturers enrich teaching at the IfKW with their diverse perspectives, practical experience, and expertise. They complement our regular course offerings with insights into current communication practices, new research priorities, and professional fields of application. We appreciate the commitment of everyone who contributes to teaching at IfKW—whether through seminars on innovative topics, practical workshops, or in-depth methodological studies. Together with our lecturers, we enable students to understand, reflect on, and practically shape communication in all its facets.
If you are interested in teaching at the IfKW or have any questions about existing teaching positions, please contact our representative for lecturers, Dr. Antonia Markiewitz.

Über unsere Jobbörse am IfKW unterstützen wir Studierende bei der Suche nach Praktika, Werkstudententätigkeiten und Einstiegsjobs. Die Veröffentlichung von Stellenanzeigen ist für Unternehmen kostenfrei. Wenn Sie eine Position ausschreiben möchten, freuen wir uns über Ihre Kontaktaufnahme per Mail.
In unserer Lehrveranstaltung „Berufsfelder der Kommunikationswissenschaft“ geben erfahrene Praktiker:innen aus Presse, Rundfunk, Film, PR, Werbung, Forschung und Management Einblicke in ihre Arbeitswelt. Die Veranstaltung richtet sich vor allem an Studierende zu Beginn ihres Studiums und bietet ihnen wertvolle Orientierung für den weiteren Studienverlauf – und Ihnen die Möglichkeit, künftige Nachwuchstalente kennenzulernen.
Das IfKW betreibt keine klassische Auftragsforschung. Wir freuen uns jedoch über Anknüpfungspunkte und Synergien mit unseren Forschungsprojekten und Schwerpunkten. Wenn Sie eine Idee für eine Zusammenarbeit haben, wenden Sie sich gerne direkt an die jeweiligen Lehrstühle (hier lang) .
