Mission
The Trademark Licensing Office exists to protect the brand, image and reputation of the University of Alabama. The Licensing Office's mission is to ensure the public can identify with and trust the quality of any product bearing an official athletic department mark. To do so, the Licensing Office works to
- Protect the University of Alabama’s image and reputation to ensure that companies using UA’s trademarks are licensed,
- Promote the brand and reputation of Alabama through quality, licensed products,
- Preserve the value of the University’s trademarks, and
- Provide additional funding for a variety of academic and athletic programs through royalties from the sale of officially licensed products
When purchasing Alabama items, always look for the "Officially Licensed Collegiate Product" hologram on a sticker or tag attached to the product!
