Creating Your Own Merchandise

Departments and student groups can create their own branded merchandise if they want specific designs or need items from other vendors. 

Here's how:

  • Vendors: Choose any vendor from the approved list to design custom merchandise. Sourcing other vendors is discouraged—reach out to FPO with any vendor-related questions.
  • Design Process: Use the vendor's design services to submit designs with your approved CBS logo. All designs must be verified by Columbia University Trademark & Licensing before finalization, which the approved vendors will handle on behalf of the department.
  • MarComms Support: If design assistance is needed, CBS Marketing & Communications can provide branding and design support upon request.
