Style Guides

Strike the right tone

The words and images that we use contribute to the telling of UBC’s story, so it’s important to be in line with the university’s visual identity, brand voice, and editorial style.

Resources

The Brand website hosts UBC’s official editorial guide, indigenous communications guide, voice and tone guide, and ready-to-use “About UBC” information.
