Communication

The Public Relations Office (PRO) - Ufficio Relazioni con il Pubblico (URP) - promotes administrative transparency, dialogue with users and facilitates access to documents. The PRO is a sub-structure of the Functional Unit “Products and Tools for Institutional and Student Communication”.

The activities of the Press Office (media relations and institutional information of the University of Florence), are carried out within the ‘Strategic Project Management, Third Mission and Communication’ Area and in particular within the ‘External Communication’ Functional Unit.

The University of Florence has profiles on the main social platforms, it uses social media to inform, communicate and listen, encouraging participation, debate and dialogue with its stakeholders. Its social media are primarily designed to promote services, projects and initiatives organised or promoted by the university and do not replace student secretariats and front offices.

The Lab is a production center dedicated to the creation and management of multimedia content. Equipped with modern equipment and with a long experience, the Laboratory offers professional support to teachers, technicians and students.

The facilities are designed to develop high-quality multimedia projects, whether they are audiovisual productions intended for dissemination, teaching or institutional communication.

Visual identity is a basic element for effective communication. The reference to a clearly defined image encourages identification with the University by its members and facilitates the recognition of the institution externally. The management of the coordinated image is handled by the Functional Unit Products and tools for institutional communication.
 

Unifi App, available in Android and iOS versions, offers free access to information and services of the University of Florence.

It is aimed in particular at students of the University, to whom numerous services are reserved (profile, exam calendar, results bulletin board, booklet, dashboard, questionnaires, payments, social media, map).

The Communication Plan is the document through which the University publicly shares its development strategies and actions in service of its users and the entire community. The plan is managed by the Strategic Project Management, Third Mission and Communication Area and is part of the University's strategic plan.
