Faculty Partnerships

Among other options, partnering with faculty from the The School of Communication Studies can involve

presenting talks or workshops in areas of expertise,

consulting on specific projects or processes, or

collaborative research that collects and analyses texts or data relevant to your organization or community.

Keep in mind: what might be a prohibitively expensive consulting engagement with a business, could prove more feasible when working with a faculty member if the project coincides with the faculty member's research agenda. We encourage you to contact individual faculty members or our Community Engagement Liaison, Dr. Jennifer PeeksMease, to explore how our faculty might help you meet your needs.
