University of Galway Press Office

University of Galway Press Office

The University’s media relations team is the primary point of contact for journalists and others working in media.

One element of our job is to help you to tell your story or to advise you as to how best to reach audiences.

If you have an idea for media coverage or if you have something you feel is newsworthy, whether it is research-based; institutional development; a human interest story or anything else that you feel is important and would generate media interest, please contact – pressoffice@universityofgalway.ie

Feel free to send a brief on your news and include high quality imagery or other content.

We are located in The Archway, Quadrangle Building. Please feel free to call in.
