Getting Started
Visit the MyPostings training materials for complete MyPostings documentation.
Here is a list of MyPostings IDs you can use to pull specific posts into your Engineering web pages.
Everything documented below is supplementary to the original MyPostings documentation, and is specific to MyPostings form choices for Engineering.
All posts have to clear content review by the respective approver associated with the school and/or departments selected as destinations.
Engineering News & Events Centers
Engineering has launched three new MyPostings-driven sites for their News Center and Events Center.
Departments
You can choose more than one department if you'd like your post to appear, for example, on other websites in addition to Engineering websites. Click on the "+" button to add multiple departments.
The following departments relate to the Engineering websites specifically:
- School of Engineering
NOTE: All other previously used departments should now be specified with the "Destinations" below.
Filters
Engineering has specific filters for posting location, audience, and subjects. Please select all applicable filters for your specific post.
All filters below work in combination with the selected department of "School of Engineering."
Filters: Where to Post (Destination)
Where to Post determines which locations (i.e. web page(s) or email newsletter) your post will display on.
So, which filters do you choose to get your post to show in certain locations?

Filters: Audience
AUDIENCE OPTIONS ARE NOT USED FOR Engineering
You will notice a list of available target audiences. By default, "Everyone" is pre-selected. It does not matter whether or not this audience is checked.
Note: Marking a post as important to a specific audience does NOT prevent any other audiences from seeing the post (i.e., this does not "hide" anything).
Filters: Subjects
Adding subject filters to your post will allow your post to appear on the corresponding front-end subject in the "Filter by Topic" area of the News Center and Events Calendar.
They are also used to target specific audiences. For example, if a spotlight or news is specific to an alum demonstrating success in their career, you would select "Alumni Success" and "Career Development."
- Academics
- Alumni Success
- Career Development
- Changemaker
- Clubs and Organizations
- Community Outreach
- Cyber Security
- Entrepreneurship
