What We Do

The Office of Research Communications promotes research and scholarly activity at the university by disseminating news and information about FAU research to internal and external audiences through a variety of channels. In addition, it supports FAU researchers, informing them about the division’s services, programs, events and regulatory changes that may impact their research.

Research communications supports all units within the division, its entrepreneurial and economic development programs, research fundraising and FAU’s four research institutes. Working in collaboration with the FAU Office of Public Affairs, the communications team handles design and print projects, develops and maintains more than a half dozen websites, distributes several newsletters, produces videos, handles university-wide research-related events, graphics, social media, photography and publishes the Owl Research & Innovation magazine and other publications.
