GeKo Reunion 2025: Master's in Health Communication celebrates graduates

This year's GeKo Reunion took place on 7 November 2025 in the research building "Weltbeziehungen" at the University of Erfurt. The event organised by the Master's degree programme in Health Communication offered current students, former students and teaching staff the opportunity to exchange ideas, look back together and network.

The varied programme included welcoming new students to the Master's in Health Communication, presenting the research results of the Class of 2024, and providing insights into the different career paths of our former students. A special highlight was the keynote speech by Prof. Dr. Jutta Mata, who presented current research on nutrition in a social context. Prof. Dr. Cornelia Betsch also gave a welcome address to the participants, and the graduates of the year were given a ceremonial farewell.

In a relaxed atmosphere, the evening also offered space for personal networking, professional exchange, and socialising - accompanied by good music, a quiz, and encounters with old and new companions.

We would like to thank everyone involved for their commitment, the inspiring conversations, and the special atmosphere that characterised this evening. The GeKo Reunion once again showed how lively and networked the degree programme community at the University of Erfurt is.

A big thank you goes to our organisers Lesley Larisch, Luna Wiess, and Gesa Wucherpfennig, as well as to everyone who contributed to the event and its success, including the EKM e.V..

We are already looking forward to next year and to bringing together students, former students, and lecturers from the Chair of Health Communication once again!
