The Office of Government and Community Relations is the University’s primary liaison with government at the local, city, state, and federal levels.  Through direct contacts with elected officials as well as through statewide and nationwide educational organizations, the office represents our students, faculty, and staff. 

This office provides NKU with an enhanced presence in the region, educating the external community about University priorities and increasing visibility and funding opportunities in areas where the University’s expertise matches regional and state needs.  In working with federal, state and local entities, the office seeks opportunities to collaborate with government agencies and external organizations to advance NKU’s capabilities and help meet the critical needs of the Commonwealth of Kentucky and the region.
