    Administrative History

    The University Communications Publications Office, a division of University Communications and Public Affairs, directs the production and development of publications and electronic material intended for campus and community-based promotion. The office serves as a recharge unit for graphic design and editorial services determining the overall design direction and production of graphic art projects for the University. They administer the production of print, electronic, and new media communication pieces on behalf of UC San Diego clients.
    The Publications Office originally started in 1965 under the direction of External Affairs, with the Office of the President's directive to produce recruitment materials, as well as public relations, events, and service-related on-campus publications. The office worked collaboratively with the Public Information Office, now combined under University Communications.
