Faculty communication teams

Last updated on 14 August 2025
The communication professionals work in teams for the faculties. There are two faculty communications teams: team Faculty of Science and team FSH-FGB-SBE-Law

The communication teams consist each of a head of communication, communication advisers, communication employees, web editors, an event coordinator and an event employee, supported by student assistants. They are close to the teaching and research of the faculties and work together with the communication departments of other faculties and the VU-wide Communication & Marketing department.

The team is responsible for the implementation of the C&M work agenda that is in line with the faculty annual plans. In addition, the team carries out all (within the frameworks appropriate) additional communication projects for faculties and departments.
