Sharing Your News and Research

Email the ASE/EM Communications Coordinator, currently Kendra Harris, about honors and awards for possible promotion on the department’s channels. Include any documentation you may have about the award.

Use this online submission form to have your research grant posted to the ASE/EM Recent Grants Awarded page.

Sharing news about your new publications increases awareness for your work while also promoting research activities in the department and Cockrell School.

• If you have an upcoming journal publication that you would like to pitch to the Cockrell School and/or media for a possible story, email Nat Levy (nat.levy@utexas.edu) and copy the department communications coordinator.
  NOTE: Cockrell needs as much advance notice as possible (2-3 months minimum) for these so they can be posted when the publication comes out, so please keep this in mind when making the request.

• LinkedIn and/or Twitter are also excellent and relatively quick options for sharing your new publications. Please tag ASE/EM and Cockrell accounts for amplification. You have the option to tag your collaborators as well. The more you tag, the more opportunities you’ll have for additional amplification.
  Examples:
  • LinkedIn Publication Post
  • Twitter Publication Post

Notify the department communications coordinator when you are going to be interviewed by the media. Share links to stories, podcasts, news, interviews, etc. from these interviews for an opportunity to be featured on our ASE/EM Media Mentions and/or on our social media channels.

Faculty are encouraged to share news on their social media channels and to tag ASE/EM and Cockrell accounts in their posts for possible amplification.

• LinkedIn
  LinkedIn is the fastest growing ASE/EM social media channel. This channel targets peer faculty/universities, prospective students, industry and government.

Follow and tag us on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook @utaerospace if you are on any of these channels as well.

Good visuals, including eye-catching still images and interesting short videos that feature your research perform very well on our social media channels, especially on LinkedIn and Instagram.

• Include simple captions that explains the research in terms that the general public can understand.
