The Communications community of practice is a resource set up and led by the Eberly College of Science's Office of Communications to share updates, resources, and best practices in marketing and communications. The main goal, however, is to create a discussion forum and collaborative space for individuals who support the college’s communications efforts.
The community of practice consists of the following:
Membership in the community of practice is open to anyone in the college with interest in connecting, learning more, and accessing these resources.
Individuals who already have access to the college's website content management system (CMS) and/or social media accounts officially representing the college and its subunits will be automatically invited.
If you are a member of the Eberly College of Science community, you can request access to join the Communications community of practice by emailing sci-comm@psu.edu.
The Comms Reps group—members of our Communications community of practice with whom we work most frequently—is a space to share department/unit happenings and brainstorm approaches to strategic partnerships between your unit and our team.
The goal is to have a designated communications representative for each department and dean’s office unit, to serve as a "communications champion"—essentially someone who can share communications resources and other information with your unit and encourage others to use them.
An updated list of all comms reps by unit will be posted sometime fall 2026.
