The Office of University Relations (OUR) provides integrated marketing, public relations, media relations and creative design services which communicate clear and consistent messaging about University of The Bahamas (UB) to its constituents and stakeholders. Through diverse publications, photography, videography, and other strategic communications we develop and manage the brand for UB, while collaborating with academic and administrative departments. Promoting programmes, milestones and achievements showcases UB’s strength as a world-class institution.
OUR is ready to assist and offer guidance to internal clients on corporate communications strategies to increase the profiling of programmes and initiatives or support revenue generating centres. Contact us today to begin planning for impactful and relevant communications that resonate with your audiences.
In managing media relations, we are responsive to media enquiries and facilitate interviews with official spokespersons, manage requests for photography and videography and release official statements.
