Spread your news
We are happy to write about your research, education or topics related to the University Administration.
We produce and publish your news on the school's intranet or external website . Internal communication's target group are the employees. External information is aimed at different target groups outside KTH and has a brand-building purpose.
In the overall news feed on the external website and intranet, the published news has been judged to have a substantial news value and to be of interest to many people.
The communications unit is responsible for assessing news tips and producing the news, and creates news in the form of:
- Articles with associated photography and image editing
- Video for social media and/or web
How to reach out
- Contact the communication unit at communication-support@eecs.kth.se and let us know about your news; it could be, for example, a new process at the university administration, research impact or an educational project you want to share.
- The communications unit then assesses whether your tip has news value relevant to the target audiences. A communicator will get back to you and present a concept.
- Following the agreed concept, we produce your news according to KTH's Swedish and English guidelines, which you may comment on and approve before publication.
- Whether the target group is internal or external, the news is published on the intranet or the external web.
- The communication unit then spreads the news. For example, in the pEECS newsletter, Slack, LinkedIn or Facebook. You are recommended to spread the news via e-mail, social media or other forums in your network.

Spread your research
Making your research results visible in other channels than scientific journals, means that more people can come into contact with the research. You thereby increase the chances of more people reading, discussing and sharing your articles.
