Peer Teuwsen also to head NZZ Campus in future
Peer Teuwsen, who is responsible for the development of journalistic products at Neue Zürcher Zeitung, will additionally take over the management of NZZ Campus at the beginning of December. He replaces Ronald Schenkel, who has headed the student magazine since 2011.
Teuwsen had switched from the weekly newspaper Die Zeit to the NZZ just over a year ago. In spring 2015, he launched the new magazine NZZ Geschichte, which he will continue to lead, the NZZ Media Group announced on Tuesday. NZZ Campus was launched in 2006. For its 10th anniversary, it is now to be revised in terms of design and content. On the one hand, the magazine is to be even closer to the lifeworld of the target group, for example by rejuvenating the editorial team, according to the statement. On the other hand, the magazine will increasingly feature guest articles by students. Synergies with the editorial teams of other NZZ titles are also to be increasingly exploited.
The current head of NZZ Campus, Ronald Schenkel, is leaving the magazine at his own request, according to an NZZ spokeswoman. The 51-year-old will take a six-month sabbatical. Whether he will continue to work for the NZZ media group after that is still open, according to the spokeswoman. (SDA)
