University Communications & Marketing, commonly known as UCM,  is a full-service, in-house marketing, branding and communications resource. Our experts can help you promote your program or department—and the university—using professionally crafted messages and materials. 

Our purpose is to support the UWG mission, vision and strategic imperatives by promoting the University of West Georgia’s brand, and to provide professional communications and marketing support to the UWG campus community to increase awareness and build the reputation of our offerings for purposeful and transformational growth. A primary goal is to ensure consistency in messaging across all forms of communication and marketing.

UCM is comprised of several cross-functional teams that are housed within two key service areas:

• Communications Services
• Branding & Marketing Services: Graphic Design, Photography & Video, Web & Social Media
