Merchandising

To promote the dissemination of the image and brand of the University of Bologna at national and international level, the University promotes active policies to enhance its brand; Among these, merchandising plays an important instrumental role in consolidating the spirit of belonging and collective identity of the university community.


Merchandising means any type of gadget created to support the communication of projects, initiatives and events of the University and/or its structures (articulations of the General Administration, campuses, schools, departments, research centers, etc.)as well as products made for sale to the public that contain the University’s trademark.

The University has identified CUSB as its exclusive licensee for merchandising activities for the five-year period 2022-2027.
