Researchers at Beckman have always conducted outreach and public engagement activities. Now, the Beckman Communications Office helps researchers plan and execute them.

Beckman's outreach and communications specialist plans the annual Beckman Institute Open House, sets strategy for institute-level outreach activities, and offers support to researchers conducting their own activities.

Please contact Lexie Kesler for your outreach planning needs.

Protection of Minors Form

The university requires anyone hosting students ages 18 and younger on campus to complete a Protection of Minors form. If you are planning your outreach activity through the Beckman Communications Office, you do not have to complete your own form. However, if you planning an independent outreach activity, you are required to fill out your own. If you have questions, please contact Lexie Kesler.
