University of Bridgeport

Problem
Too many students and families assume real innovation only happens at big-name universities, overlooking smaller institutions like the University of Bridgeport when they search for cutting-edge programs and opportunities.

This perception causes them to miss the fact that UB students are already collaborating with NASA, pioneering the first AI master’s degree in Connecticut, and winning national championships in women’s gymnastics—proof that high-impact education is happening in their own backyard.

Solution
UB turns potential into performance by putting students at the center of innovation, scholarship, and competition. By showcasing bold, memorable proof points—“UB Students x NASA,” “First AI Master’s Degree in CT,” and “6-Time National Champions. Women’s Gymnastics.”—The campaign reframes UB as a place where ambition is matched with real outcomes.

Each message invites students to see themselves designing alongside NASA, advancing AI, or competing on a championship team, positioning the University of Bridgeport as the smart choice for those ready to innovate, excel, and lead.
