Office of Advancement

Our Office of Advancement is dedicated to helping the university prosper by building lasting relationships with our alumni/ae, the community, donors and our students.

What We Do

Community Engagement

We are committed to growing with the Southern Nevada community. The Office of Advancement makes connections to promote the university and discover new ways to use our expertise to help the community prosper. 

Donations

We are thankful for our generous donors. We manage gifts, secure support, and identify new opportunities to support our students and bring projects to life at Touro Nevada. 

Alumni/ae Relations

Commencement isn't a closing chapter at Touro Nevada. We cultivate a strong relationship with our alumni/ae to grow the Touro Nevada family. 

Marketing and Public Relations

We promote our story outside of the university. The Office of Advancement is the primary contact for individuals, local businesses, and municipalities. If your company or organization needs a speaker or representative from Touro Nevada, the Office of Advancement can help facilitate. We work with the media and press organizations to promote events, respond to interviews, and offer expertise within our fields.
