Media Strategy

The UIS Office of Media Strategy, part of the Department of Strategic Communication, serves as the university’s official voice through traditional media relations and social media integration. The office responds to media inquiries and Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests; issues university press releases; tells the UIS story through video, social media and web content; and manages the official UIS top-level social media channels. This office was previously known as Public Relations.
