Signage Overview
Digital Signage in Moody College is a prime opportunity to promote events and resources to the Moody College community including students, faculty, staff and visitors. Moody College allows postings by official Moody College or central UT Austin entities, including Moody College sponsored student organizations.
Types of Signage and Uses
There are two types of Digital Signage: the horizontal monitors across all our buildings as well as the free-standing vertical kiosks.
- Monitors are used for promoting Moody College events or programs, and sharing resources and opportunities appropriate for the Moody College community.
- The vertical kiosks are used for promoting Moody College events within Moody College buildings or events either hosted by or featuring Moody College members in other venues.
- Some monitors throughout the college are managed by units within the college including Departments, Schools and certain Centers (depending on location).
- Monitors on floors housing departments and schools may choose to manage all content if they wish. If not, these monitors will be managed by MarCom and post college-wide material.
- A CIP or unit may be given permission to manage a monitor and post their own content if the location is primarily dedicated to that CIP or unit (such as the current Blank Center location) and the monitor is not in a highly trafficked area (such as outside an elevator) that serves other units on that floor or proximal area.
*All monitor and kiosk devices are managed by Tech Services. If you see an issue with a device, contact them here*
