Welcome! We’re glad you’re here. You are part of a vibrant group of communicators around campus who are vital to telling the university’s story.
We want you to have the knowledge, resources and connections that will help you succeed. Please use the below starting points along with our broader list of resources and feel free to contact us.
Join us for our semi-annual introduction to University Communications and University Marketing in February or early March, 2024. You’ll hear about our approach to institutional marketing and communications, meet leaders and other staff, and learn about resources available to all campus communicators. Pre-register for more details.
Connect with a University Communications staff member
We recommend identifying a member of University Communications staff who can serve as your liaison, answer questions and connect you to the right people and resources. Unsure who to contact? Send us an email and we’ll find the right fit.
Join a communicators group
We help organize a handful of professional development groups (also known as communities of practice) on campus dedicated to communications, such as Campus Communicators, Research Communicators and #UWSocial. Access the campus communicators list and other groups here. Members share relevant information, help one another solve problems, and meet in person to make connections between communicators across campus.
