The Communications and Public Relations Department provides the service of writing comprehensive news articles over University related events to be disseminated across various media platforms, promoting AURAK in efforts to keep the public up-to-date on AURAK news and boost student enrollment.

Selecting The Appropriate Editorial Request Form

There are thirteen editorial request forms tailored to acquire the necessary information required for writing a comprehensive article over each type of event: Academic Competitions, Celebrations/Holidays/Parties, Ceremonies, Community Service Initiatives, Dignitary and Delegation Visitations, Donations and Scholarships, Meetings, MoUs, Public Lectures, Sports, and Workshops. The first step is to decide which form serves the purpose of your event.

Submitting A Request For An Editorial

Please email the line manager requesting an editorial including the correct completed form, promotional literature concerning the event, and indicate whether the event will be in English or Arabic. If submitting your request after your event has taken place, please provide pictures from the event (Instructions should be provided explaining where this page will be linked to/from). Remember, the sooner the request is made, the better chance office representation at your event.

What To Expect The Day Of The Event

The Writer/Editor and office representatives will attend your event, take notes, and interview event participants. If you are submitting your request after the event has taken place and have quotes from event participants, please write the quote, the person being quoted, and a brief explanation of the person’s involvement in the event in the Miscellaneous Box located at the bottom of each form.

Article Writing And Publication

While the more information you provide in the form will result in higher quality articles, it is important to remember that different publishing platforms carry different word count limitations. The Writer(s) will do their best to condense as much of the information as possible into the article, but there is no guarantee that all of the information will be used in the article. The significance of the information will be prioritized by the Line Manager according to the best interest of the University.
The media platform in which the article will be published is up to the discretion of the Line Manager and will be based on the best interests of the University.
Unfortunately, we cannot quote a timetable in which the article will be written and published as it will be subject to multiple variables such as the number of University events occurring and media publishing schedules. We will do our best to get the article written and published as soon as possible.
Articles will not be published until approved by the Line Manager.
