Welcome

Welcome to the Office of Marketing, Communication and Engagement at SIU Medicine. We have a compelling story to tell that surrounds our educational, research and clinical excellence. Our goal is to make sure the SIU Medicine story is known internally, locally, nationally and internationally, and promoted consistently and expertly.    

Our team works with any and every department at SIU Medicine. We delegate, guide and implement projects ranging from targeted recruitment strategies to event promotion. Our multimedia deliverables are designed with compelling, best-practice marketing strategies that will optimize our reach. Our efforts support clinicians, researchers and medical students while also helping residents of central and southern Illinois connect with the resources and providers they need.
