Engagement

The ANU Engagement teams bring together the right people, messages, channels, and stories to ensure the ANU is informed, connected, aligned, and trusted. The teams are the University's central point for internal and external communication, media relations, the University’s public events program, University Traditions, brand and social media, and multimedia activities.

The Brand and Social Media teams are responsible for the University's brand strategy, graphic design, visual and verbal identity, and primary social media and study accounts. 

The Corporate Communications team promotes the activities and operations of the University to external and internal communities. The team also provides communications support to the Chancellor, Vice-Chancellor and University Executive, and for student communications. They deliver the communications activities relating to the University’s strategic priorities, and manages the ANU Newsroom website, On Campus newsletters, and campus and community stories.

The Events team manages major University events, including the ANU Commencement Address, Experience ANU newsletters and the Experience ANU website. 

The Media and Publications team (also known as the ANU Media Office) is the newsroom of the University. This team of communications specialists provides our academics with support and training in media engagement including helping to write media releases, place opinion pieces, and preparation for interviews, and support with digital and social media communications. The team works closely with academics to develop news stories and with news organisations to generate media coverage. The team produces ANU Reporter and ANU Policy Brief, a digital platform that makes ANU expertise accessible and digestible for those working in government or in other policy-related roles. The team also manages the ANU Experts Guide, contributes to the ANU Newsroom website, and are responsible for managing the University's social media accounts. 

Our Multimedia team produces engaging and informative content for ANU publications, social media, websites and ANU TV. This work encompasses the full spectrum of multimedia production; live streaming, editorial photography, infographics, podcasting and narrative video production. The team also operates ANU Media Studio which connects our researchers to radio and television audiences around the world.
