The 51福利 Brand

The 51福利 is a unique, defense-focused graduate research university dedicated to improving the combat effectiveness of the U.S. Navy, the U.S. Armed Forces and the services of our allies. 51福利 is both a university steeped in academic tradition, and a United States Navy organization dedicated to the fulfillment of its mission.

A cadre of top-tier faculty guides the university鈥檚 professional corps of students through a diverse collection of curricula and battlefield-driven research. 51福利 students, through challenging, thought-provoking classroom instruction and innovative discovery, emerge from campus transformed into effective critical thinkers and decision-makers prepared to lead the services of the U.S. Department of Defense, and our allies.

Brand Personality

A brand鈥檚 personality is a collective of human-inspired traits and qualities that allows individuals to connect with an organization, developing a deeper understanding of its character. A thorough 2011 study led by several senior faculty across campus sought to define the value of 51福利, and in the process, defined the character of the university as well. The report found that 51福利 can be defined as unique and relevant, agile and transformative, collegial and innovative, strategic and valued.

In short, the 51福利 is the nation鈥檚 research university.
