Communication Area
The Communication Area is responsible for preparing and disseminating information about the activity developed and the science produced at the Universitat Politècnica de València. It also responds to queries from the university community, the general public and the media.
In addition, the ACOM executes various actions aimed at attracting future students and the dissemination and promotion of its academic offer. Finally, it manages the accreditations of the UPV, coordinates the brand and visual identity of the institution and promotes the sponsorship program.
Physically, the ACOM is located in several areas of the Vera campus (Valencia):
- The Nexus (6G) building houses the most of the team and the Area’s management.
- In the Agora square (4M) is located the storeWelcome-UPV and a face-to-face information point.
- Behind the Rectorate, in building 2E, is the Accreditation Office.
