About The Brand Strategy Initiative

In September of 2015, The University of New Mexico began working with 160over90 to enhance the institution’s brand and increase global awareness of its offerings. The initiative is led by University Communication & Marketing and includes guidance and support from various representatives on campus.

A Steering Committee will guide the Branding Strategy Initiative, working closely with the agency to develop and implement a brand concept. The Committee will also use information and considerations provided by the Marketing & Communication Advisory Council.
