Creative Services Project Request | Communications and Marketing

Creative Services will be taking a holiday break to recharge and celebrate the season. Our office will be closed starting December 21, and we will return on Thursday, January 2, 2025.

During this time, we will not be processing new requests. We look forward to reconnecting in the new year to bring your creative visions to life!

Wishing you a joyful holiday season and a prosperous New Year!

Warm regards,
The Creative Services Team

Important Note

As Binghamton University grows and changes on its Path to Premier, so too must University Communications and Marketing. After a lengthy review of our department and how we can best align ourselves with the University’s Road Map and strategic priorities, we have a new way of considering project requests and developing creative materials.

We will now be prioritizing work that has the potential to make the largest impact for the University. This includes projects that affect graduate and undergraduate recruitment and admissions. In addition, we will continue to focus on efforts that raise Binghamton University’s image to a national level. Further, to ensure consistent, cohesive design that best advances the University’s image, University Communications and Marketing retains creative authority on all projects we develop.
