About Our Brand

United we brand

Branding is about much more than the proper use of a logo or a color. It’s about consistent communication. About achieving a common look and feel. About speaking with one voice.

Our mission

Why is branding so important? Our brand supports and reflects the university’s mission:

To serve the people of Michigan and the world through preeminence in creating, communicating, preserving and applying knowledge, art and academic values, and in developing leaders and citizens who will challenge the present and enrich the future.

Our brand pillars and positioning

All enduring brands periodically conduct research in order to gain insights to strengthen their overall positioning. The University of Michigan partnered with Edelman to evaluate and define our brand identity. Included below is an overview of the results of that work.
