Imagery and icons

Photography is how we show who we are and what we stand for.

From creating a window into our campus and community, student lives and research achievements, to demonstrating our connection to global issues, the right image can help us tell a powerful story.

Images of our students, staff and campus are confident and candid, capturing fleeting interactions, innovation, ambition and diversity. Our images feel authentic, unstaged and make a statement about who we are. We want to capture the imagination of our audiences and encourage them to find out more.

There will be times, when talking about wider-world themes and real-world impact, where an impactful stock image can help to tell a story. But we only use them to illustrate broad themes, and never to illustrate our students, colleagues or campus.
