Logos

Our logo is our strongest visual element. In order for it to remain a prominent visual representation of our brand, consistency is important. These logotypes have been created for each of Keck Medicine of USC’s units as part of the university identity system. Only University Communications and Health System Marketing Communications have the authority to create these logotypes.

The logotypes below are available for download to USC faculty and staff (including student staff) with a usc.edu email account. You will be prompted to sign in with your University NET ID.

Logo Formats

Each logo set contains an official wordmark in two or three formats: single line, 2-line or 3-line. Downloads also include instructions on which format to use, as well as approved color combinations.

Keck Medicine of USC Official Logotype

The Keck Medicine of USC logotype is the official logotype for the health system and is considered its master brand.

Program and Service Line Logos

Programs and service lines without naming gifts are given a logo lock up, consisting of the official wordmark of the governing entity with the program or service line name typeset below in our official sans serif font, National bold. These are created by the Health Sciences Communications and Marketing design team. To request a lock-up, please complete a project request form by following this link.

Clear Space

The legibility and distinction of the Keck Medicine of USC logotype is very important. To ensure that the logotype is highly visible, always separate it from its surroundings. This area of isolation or minimum required clear space surrounding all logotypes should be half the logotype’s height on all sides as shown below — also referred to as “K” height. 
Do not allow any other graphic elements to penetrate this area of isolation.

FAQ

See below for frequently asked questions about our logos.

No, programs and services are not approved to design their own logos. However, they can request logo lockups that pair their program or service name with the appropriate Keck Medicine logo.

You can request a logo lock up by using the Marketing Request Form.

The health system, hospitals and USC Care Medical Group are the major entities of Keck Medicine, and have their own logos. Certain programs and service lines, such as USC Roski Eye Institute and USC Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center, have their own logos thanks to receiving a donor naming gift at a significant level. See a member of the Keck Medicine of USC Advancement team with any questions.
