The University of St Andrews Business School Brand

The University of St Andrews Business School adheres to the broader University's brand guidelines to present a clear and consistent visual and design identity across all print and digital materials.

However, the Business School uses distinct brand assets to enhance its reputation in a few select instances.

Business School staff are encouraged to follow these guidelines, and the following resources are available to assist those wishing to use these assets.

School name

The University of St Andrews Business School is the Business School's name. You should use this consistently when first mentioning the School.

You can refer to the University of St Andrews Business School as Business School (capitalised) on the second mention.

Never refer to ourselves as 'St Andrews University Business School' or 'St Andrews Business School'.

Use 'university' (lowercase) to refer to a university in general. Use 'business school' (lowercase) when referring to business schools in general.

When referring to other higher education institutions, it's important to follow their specific naming conventions. For example:
