ELTE Science Communication Contest 2026
ELTE Tudománykommunikációs Verseny 2026

ELTE is announcing its science communication contest for the eighth time for students, researchers, and staff who would like to share their research with the widest possible audience in an easily understandable way.  

Applicants can participate in two categories: either with a short, illustrated popular science article or with a video, podcast, or interview. Entries must be original works; the use of artificial intelligence is allowed, but the method of its use must be documented. EKÖP and KDP scholarship holders can compete in a separate category. 

During evaluation, key aspects are comprehensibility, the ability to engage interest, and the quality of information delivery. The jury members are staff members from the ELTE Directorate of Communications, Marketing and Recruitment, the Office of Science Policy, the University Strategy Office, and the International Strategy Office. The creators of the best entries may receive a National Geographic subscription, ELTE gifts, and publication opportunities.

Application deadline: May 25, 2026.
