The Johns Hopkins University logo is rooted in tradition. Developed in 2013, its iconography is based on the university’s official seal. The open book represents knowledge and discovery, the globe signifies the university’s worldwide reach and responsibility, and the crest of Lord Baltimore is emblematic of the university’s commitment and connection to its community. These elements are framed in a shield that is a shared visual among all our schools and divisions.

The logo is available in two orientations, vertical and horizontal.

None of the elements may be altered in any way. Use only the digital artwork provided at brand.jhu.edu. Do not redraw or alter the logo.
