Email, one of the most-used methods of communication, presents an opportunity to promote The University of Akron.
In our email signatures, the consistent and professional use of our name, title and contact information contributes to our brand’s strength and supports our roles as ambassadors for the university. Therefore, we recommend that you use the format below for your email signature.
The wordmark can be added to the bottom of the signature as shown below.
As a faculty or staff member, an affiliation or association with a professional organization or institution often enhances your value to the university. However, please exclude these associations from your email signature to avoid confusion over your ties to the university.
