EVE University's Social Media presence

You are very welcome to check out our social media accounts and share and engage as much as you want to.

Many of the communication officers as well as other fellow Unistas are posting regularly on r/eve on Reddit.

Some classes and events are streamed to our Twitch channel and as much as possible uploaded to our YouTube page. The EVE Uni Youtube serves as our primary social media platform.

We do not currently maintain a Facebook, Instagram, blog or any other social media presence not listed above.

Resources

We are providing a range of graphic and video material to get you started in case you want to incorporate it in contributions to EVE University promotion e.g. through streaming on Twitch (ideal for holding classes), YouTube content or other audiovisual content that we can use to promote EVE University as a corporation and to provide learning opportunities to capsuleers.

• Selection of UniWiki:EVE University Graphics on our Wiki.
• The EVE University style guide can be used as a guideline in the creation of official Uni media.
• How to record or stream a class, fleet, event, ...: Visit our Recording and Streaming Guide.

Freelance contribution

Everyone can contribute to promoting EVE University. The simplest way of supporting us is by talking about your experience in the Uni on any of the social media channels and by guiding players, helping them answer their questions and ideally lightly point them to applying to the Uni.

Creating posters

If you are interested in creating posters (For example: WW2 propaganda-derived works, so ubiquitous in EVE) but do not want to join the staff itself, feel free to give it a shot and reach out to us if you need any help or guidance.

You can also reach out to any Communications Officer if you have questions about picture composition, which programs to use, tips and tricks, and so on. We would also be happy to host them in our Graphics Library if the graphics can be used repeatedly.
