Only one ‘WashU’
This fall, Washington University unveiled an updated visual identity that allows us to tell our story in new ways.
Preparing leaders
WashU prepares its students to become critical thinkers and inspiring leaders, promoting effective listening and respectful engagement, which are critical to navigating difficult conversations.
The next era of neuroscience research
WashU dedicates the new Jeffrey T. Fort Neuroscience Research Building.
A big step toward educational equity
By eliminating undergraduate student loans, we have aligned our resources with our mission and are unlocking the potential of every future WashU student to make a unique mark on the world.
Our guiding principles
Our commitment to community runs deep, and we aim to enhance the health, equity and prosperity for all in the region and beyond.
A place of possibility
Academic freedom is the cornerstone of discovery, and our commitment to free inquiry has only been strengthened since our founding in 1853.
Forging new paths
Through ‘Here and Next,’ WashU commits to creating a future of faculty research and student learning rooted in interdisciplinary collaboration and excellence.
Cultivating authentic community
Creating a greater sense of belonging for our diverse community is our investment in the future.
Cultivating purpose-driven leaders
As set forth in our strategic vision, WashU is preparing and challenging everyone in our university community — students, faculty and staff — to step forward to serve, in ways large or small, to have a positive impact on our region, nation and world.
Making way for students to thrive
