Custom Products for Faculty & Staff
Last Updated on September 3, 2025 by Rachel Leone
Practical custom items that will delight faculty & staff!
College professors and staff members are always running around campus to support students. Show them that your school cares, with thoughtful custom items, from techy power banks and travel coffee mugs to useful tools to have in class. Below you'll find a handful of my customers' favorite gifts and giveaways that can all be branded with your school's logo, and many with your colors.
Trends to keep in mind when selecting cutom items for faculty & staff
- Portability. While members of the faculty and staff may have their own offices, professors in particular often have to move between classrooms throughout the day. Thoughtful gift-givers should keep portability in mind.
- Practicality. You want to give staff and faculty members items that they will actually use. For example, don't give custom dry-erase markers to a professor who uses classrooms with chalkboards. On the flip side, do provide custom folders to staff in the career center that resumes and portfolios can be presented in.
- Personalization. These products can be personalized with your school's branding (or even the branding of the recipient's specific department), and some of the items below can be used both on- and off-campus.
- Brand Visibility. Employees are typically happy to use products with their employer's branding on them, and university faculty & staff members are no exception. This can even lead to organic advertising opportunities for your school, off-campus.
