Communications services

Communications Services acts as a bridge between the university and society, ensuring that Aalto University's education, research and innovation activities are perceived as understandable and meaningful.

Our purpose is to make Aalto's impact known

We support Aalto University's strategy and operational impact through communication, marketing and events. We are responsible for providing communication support for the university's leadership and key projects, as well as communication and marketing services across Aalto's six schools.

We offer tools, guidelines and support whether you are communicating with the Aalto community or externally. We communicate through multiple channels about current topics, particularly focusing on research, education and the societal impact of the work carried out at the university. With our expertise in communications, we can also support our community in participating in public discussions.

We assist with the planning and execution of communications and marketing and support the development of consistent communication and marketing. We offer a wide range of services, from media communications to marketing, websites, events and social media support.

Our services cover the diverse field of communications, from media relations to marketing, crisis communications, websites, events and social media support. We build a comprehensive communication and marketing approach that reflects Aalto's identity. We design and implement communication and marketing initiatives and help our staff communicate clearly and effectively to the right target groups.

Communication is interaction, and every member of the Aalto community influences how our university is portrayed and understood.
