Vision 2028
Our vision
Over the 2018-19 academic year the University of East London has been developing and starting to implement a new 10-year strategy, Vision 2028, to transform our curriculum, pedagogy, research impact and partnerships to make a positive difference to student, graduate and community success. Our ambitious but achievable goal is to become the leading careers-focused, enterprising university in the UK, one which both prepares our students for the jobs of the future and provides the innovation to drive that future sustainably and inclusively.
Our new brand
As part of our Vision 2028 strategic plan, we have been working with staff, students, alumni, partners and other stakeholders to articulate who we are and what we have to offer. We worked with our stakeholders to come up with a new visual identity that reflects both our heritage and our relevance in the modern world.
We want our identity to capture the rich blend of people, heritage, innovation and life in east London. We are proud of where we have come from but it's important that we shape the future. Our new visual identity is perfectly poised for that.
