Communications Office

The University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science’s Communications Team is responsible for helping shape and execute overarching communications strategy for the institution and advance key priorities of the President, Board of Visitors and Office of Institutional Advancement. The team manages the daily operation of the university’s central communications channels including the website and social media accounts, guides the university’s media engagement, maintains brand reputation and crisis communications, and provides campus partners with strategic communications counsel. As the gatekeepers of the UMCES brand, the Office of Communications is also responsible for ensuring the university brand is used consistently and correctly.
