The Office of Government Relations & External Affairs is Bronx Community College’s liaison to local, state and federal government. The focus of the office is to create opportunities through which the college can engage with elected officials and community leaders to advocate for support.

Through internal and external events, and participation in public hearings, our office advocates for Bronx Community College and the City University of New York (CUNY) on topics such as finance and budget, educational programs, and other higher education concerns. We work with elected officials to secure capital funding to enhance the student experience at Bronx Community College’s National Historic Landmarked campus.
