The Office of Public Affairs helps build broad-based awareness of UTMB’s education,
research and patient care missions by informing internal and external audiences of
the university’s accomplishments and contributions to health care and health science.
Audiences include faculty, staff, students, alumni, friends, patients, legislators
and the public at large. Public Affairs has broad responsibilities in the areas of
media relations, brand management and institutional messaging, executive communications,
crisis communication and issues management, and institutional print and electronic communications.
