Business cards

A business card can create one of the first impressions of the University of British Columbia. Consistency in design, colour and type is important to reinforce the university’s identity.

Requirements

UBC business cards and stationery are printed by the DATA Group of Companies in partnership with Xerox Global Services (XGS). XGS and the DATA Group are the only approved suppliers of business cards for UBC Faculty and Staff.

Staff and faculty can order business cards via their Director/Manager or Department Administrator that includes their UBC appointment information and UBC related contact information (e.g., Department, Program, Clinical Academic Campus or Affiliated Regional Centre).

All units in the Faculty of Medicine should follow this process. Please ensure the “Faculty of Medicine” is included in the address line.

Details about business card orders are available on the UBC Finance website.
