The Mission

Butler University is known for its strong undergraduate programs and basketball team. However, the university has struggled to position itself as a leading contender for graduate and professional programs, often overshadowed by larger, more established institutions, both locally and regionally. As part of their new professional learning program, our mission was to define Butler’s vision and communicate it in a way that inspires prospective students to take action.

The Hook

“Find Your Next” originated as our big idea driving the visual language and messaging, later evolving to become the official tagline. Engaging audiences with thought-provoking questions about evolving industries, professional education, and career growth, our messaging speaks directly to learners who see themselves as driven, goal-oriented individuals. Dynamic design elements and aspirational photography bring the Butler+ vision to life.
