SBS Communication Support
The College of Social and Behavioral Sciences (SBS) Marcom Team is available to help with the promotion of programs, internships, events, research, and more. It is our goal to keep our students, faculty, staff, and alumni informed of all the great work being done here at SBS!
As representatives of the University, we are also stewards of the UMass Amherst brand, and are happy to provide guidance on questions related to visual design, typography, editorial guidelines, and more. Please note that due to time and resource constraints, we are not able to assist with all projects.

How can we help?
Are you an SBS departmental communicator looking for marcom training, MarketingCloud, website, or social media support and resources? We have a page just for you!
The SBS Marcom Team is available to help promote projects that draw audiences beyond those within a single department. We strive to bring the SBS community together by sharing news, updates, events, and achievements with our community. Our team is happy to support the following marcom requests:
Share Your Stories
The SBS Marcom Team is always on the lookout for opportunities to share the amazing work of our students, faculty, and staff. We have several platforms where this content can be shared, depending on the appropriate audience.
Beyond SBS, the University has multiple options for sharing information through their platforms, including Inside UMass, UMass News and Events, and the UMass Magazine. Stories submitted for sharing through University outlets should be of interest to a broad audience.
Event Promotion & Support
We are happy to promote SBS, SBS-sponsored, and SBS-related events. For events sponsored by the Dean’s Office, we offer poster and social media graphic design services. In order to best promote your event, we suggest submitting a promotion request no later than two weeks before the event, and that all event details be finalized at the time of the request submission.
