Governmental Relations

Governmental Relations works to support and promote the University's mission of research, teaching and public service through advocacy, issue management, and functioning as a liaison with government, community and campus constituencies. It provides a vital link in fostering positive, effective relationships between campus constituencies and the University's external audiences.

Governmental Relations provides leadership for building effective and enduring relationships with public policy-makers, and other members of the public for the purpose of increasing and strengthening the support, visibility and prominence of UC Riverside's research, teaching and public service missions. Government Relations serves as the central resource for campus and unit-based relationships with local, regional, state and federal elected officials.
