Fortunately for us, we are not the only ones who have a stake in higher education. Our state and local officials, and our advocates in the community, also care about our students, faculty, staff and alumni. And we want to keep them informed and up-to-date on UC San Diego’s achievements, initiatives, research and education programs. That’s where our government relations staff step in. They foster and develop relationships, and plan support-building activities, with our elected officials and advocates. Contact us today if we can help you with your state and local government relations needs.

Advocacy

Advocacy has never been more important. Advocacy efforts keep our legislators, and others who have a stake in higher education, informed and up-to-date on UC San Diego’s achievements, initiatives and impact. We can help with your advocacy efforts and we want you to join ours.
