Website Projects

OUC supports official Brown websites in various ways—from providing digital platforms to offering consulting and strategic services. If your project involves web copy, photography, video, or other content-focused work for a University website, please submit a marketing project request.

For website needs beyond marketing—such as planning a new site, information architecture, site building, user experience consulting, or accessibility support—please email web@brown.edu. We take new projects based on availability, and advance notice gives us the best chance to schedule your project.

Strategic Event Planning

The Event Strategy and Management (ESM) team partners with departments and academic units at Brown to guide, develop and plan strategic events that reflect the University’s mission of academic excellence and align with University priorities. We partner with offices and departments on planning initiatives for a diverse range of high-impact events, from lectures and conferences to virtual events and ceremonies.
