Roslyn Cox

Roslyn has worked in communication for more than 25 years in a range of industries and roles including media relations, public health, health promotion, crisis management, university marketing, corporate communication, event management, client service, corporate business development, and not-for-profit services.

Since joining CSU in 2011, Roslyn has taught public relations strategy and tactics, organisational communication management, issues and crisis management, events management, internship placement and introductory communication subjects at undergraduate and postgraduate levels.

Roslyn has a great passion for communication and believes that skills and abilities in this field can be a person’s passport to a wonderfully rewarding career and limitless opportunities.

“The ability to communicate, to write well, to craft messages, to understand and connect with audiences, to really listen, to research and harness technology and the incredible interconnectedness of our modern world, means that communication skills have enormous importance and value,” she says.

Roslyn has recently completed her doctorate and her research focused on the concept of paracrisis, the susceptibility of social-media triggered crisis events for organisations. Her thesis explored the immunisation paracrisis, and the way pro-immunisation messages are supported in social media environments.
