Triton Print & Digital Media offers the university community opportunities to promote their events and services on shuttles, carts, digital kiosks, bus shelters and in parking structures.

UC San Diego departments and tenants can promote their events and services (e.g., Homecoming, Triton Day, grand openings, etc.) on Transportation Services’ shuttles, carts, bus shelters and in parking structures. Advertising on campus digital wayfinding kiosks is also available.

  • Elevator wraps and parking structure banners are not produced in-house, and customers must use a university-approved printing vendor.
  • Your selected vendor will print and install/remove elevator wraps.
  • Parking structure banners are installed/removed by Facilities Management at a modest cost.

Process

  1. The requesting department or tenant mustP contact tritonprint-ads@ucsd.edu at least two weeks before the desired installation date.
  2. Triton Print & Digital Media will review the request for space availability, purpose, design and compliance with brand guidelines and policies and provide a response:
    • Approval
    • Approval pending modifications
    • Rejected with explanation
  3. Triton Print & Digital Media will produce and install the ads for one month and recharge the requesting department or organization. Departments must provide project and task numbers.

Guidelines

All advertisements must:

  • Relate to campus activities, events, department or tenant programs or services (Associated Students and Graduate & Professional Student Association may place ads for their sponsored activities.)
  • Adhere to brand.ucsd.edu guidelines

Content must be informative, accurate, fair and polite. Advertisements cannot:

  • Reference sex, drugs or alcohol
  • Support political parties or candidates or contain other speech that would be a prohibited use of university resources

Ad Types and Monthly Pricing

Triton Print & Digital Media produces and installs ads in buses and at bus shelters. Prices include production, ad space, installation and removal.

Transportation Services will run ads for one month minimum. If more time is available, costs will be prorated by week at 25% of the monthly rate. We reserve the right to remove damaged ads without notice.
