Ten years on, how are universities using twitter to engage with their communities? #LoveTwitter LSE Round-Up

24 March 2016

Amy Mollett, Social Media Manager, rounds up how LSE currently uses Twitter for sharing research, interacting with students and alumni, and promoting events. She also looks at what the future of academic social media might look like. For #LoveTwitter day she digs into the altmetrics and shares the most tweeted about pieces of LSE research.

Research and Twitter at LSE
We also have Department feeds and our own official @LSENews and @LSEalumni accounts that keep students and our community up to date about achievements and new research. Research is proving to be an area around which we're seeing increased engagement; we know there are lots of conversations going on all around the world about LSE-authored research and we get involved with those when it makes sense. A recent example is the interest in the CEP report on the consequences of Brexit for UK trade and living standards.
