Integrated Strategic Communications takes the lead on aligning communications to support top priority presidential and board initiatives as well as executing signature events for Mizzou and the University of Missouri System. Housed within the Joint Office of Strategic Communications and Marketing, our office unites teams within JOSCM, across MU and the UM System through collaboration to deliver coordinated communications through our variety of channels.

Our office is also responsible for producing remarks and presentations that support systemwide initiatives for the president or the Board of Curators.

Signature events include high-touch, large-scale gatherings hosted by the president, provost, or the institution. Examples of Signature Events include:

• MU Remembers
• State of the University Address
• UM System Undergraduate Research Day
• Kempers Fellows Recognition
• Patriot Day
• Deck the Columns
