Digital Signage

Digital screens provide a powerful and highly visible opportunity to communicate messages across campus.

There are several content categories in the digital signage system that UBC faculties, departments and units can use to build awareness of their activities.

Events can appear on digital screens for two weeks at a time. If information is provided with enough lead time (more than a month), up to two additional weeks can be considered.

Info required

  • Supporting unit(s)
  • Event title (5 to 10 words)
  • Date of event
  • Time of event
  • Location of event
  • URL or an email address that provides more information or registration for the event

If you have an event that you need to appear on the digital screens, contact chris.guenard@ubc.ca.

One new course and one low-enrolment course per faculty or school can be promoted on the screens at any given time. Each course will be added for a two-week rotation.

Info required

  • Course name
  • Course number
  • Day(s) classes are taking place as well as time of day
  • Session and term
  • URL of appropriate program page, or email address to contact for more information
  • Dates to post and remove from signage (max two weeks per course)

If you have a course that you need to appear on the digital screens, contact chris.guenard@ubc.ca.

Effective campaigns or contests require effective visuals. If you want to encourage students, faculty and staff to participate in a contest or campaign in your area, connect first with a University Relations strategist.

UBCO campaigns or contests can appear on digital screens for two weeks at a time. If information or assets are provided with enough lead time (a month or more), up to two additional weeks might be considered.
