About us
The Communication and Marketing Division (DCM) is responsible for the University of Coimbra's internal and external communication, media relations, and the promotion/dissemination of events, with a special focus on knowledge production at our University, where cutting-edge research takes centre stage.
DCM covers the University's main events, reports on the most topical and recent developments at the University on the UC News website and shares news content on the University's social networks (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and X [Twitter]), and broadcasts live events on the YouTube channel of the University of Coimbra.
Every Thursday, the UC Global newsletter—available in Portuguese and English—is sent to the entire academic community, highlighting the most relevant news and events of the week. On the website "Our UC," we also share with the UC community the various initiatives that foster open and regular dialogue between faculty, researchers, staff, and students.
It ensures that our main content is available in English (UC News, Our UC, UC Homepage, UC Global), as well as other relevant content.
DCM also manages authorisation requests for image capture, the editorial content of the UC Homepage, the delivery of messages via UC mailing lists, and Rua Larga magazine.
The Communication and Marketing Division includes the Marketing Unit (NMAR), which is responsible for promoting the UC brand and developing and implementing strategies to highlight the key features of the University of Coimbra, through digital marketing services (digital content management of official UC platforms and the development and implementation of digital advertising campaigns), design services (guidance on the visual identity of the University of Coimbra and the design of graphic materials for institutional communication), and audiovisual production (creative design and audiovisual production for targeted marketing campaigns).
