Publications

As part of the Public Affairs team, the UTMB publications group helps ensure a positive public image for the university by promoting quality in design, writing and printing. Contrary to the nicknames “Logo Cops” and “Grammar Police,” the publications staff is actually quite nice—and none of us carry nightsticks. We’re responsible for the required institutional review of promotional materials for schools, departments and programs; for producing numerous institution-wide publications and communications tools, including UTMB Magazine and Impact; and for advising campus departments on the UTMB identity system, editorial matters, and print design and production issues.
