Public and Media Relations


ASUO Street Fair going on May 7-9

Public and Media Relations is the University of Oregon's primary office for news, as well as internal and marketing communications.

Professionals in our office provide a wide range of services to journalists; the campus community; and the general public. In addition to providing news and comment about current events and breaking news on campus, the office details the cutting-edge work of scientists and researchers at the UO. We can assist members of the campus community in developing detailed communication strategies for long-term projects or quick interviews. We are glad to answer general queries from the public about the campus and its operations and to direct callers to appropriate locations.
