Communications

The Peabody Office of Communications supports the college’s strategic efforts through planning, production, and dissemination of various types of media to strengthen Peabody’s reputation, and positioning among graduate schools of education. Our team provides strategic advice and service for leadership communications; graduate and professional student recruitment; dissemination of research findings and research project activity; faculty, student, and alumni news; faculty awards nominations; and signature events. The Office of Communications also maintains the Peabody College website and is developing a new Peabody intranet.
