What is EMERGE?
EMERGE is where beginnings become memories.
Led by the Second-Year BBA(CA) students of BMCC, EMERGE welcomes students from FY BBA, BBA(IB), BBA(CA), and BMS into their first chapter of college life.
From challenges and competition to creativity, entertainment, and new friendships, EMERGE is designed to make sure no one walks into BMCC feeling alone.
A new campus. New people. A new beginning.
ASCEND — The Journey of Metamorphosis
ASCEND represents the journey of growth, transformation, and moving beyond one's limitations. The visual identity takes the cicada as its central symbol—a creature deeply associated with transformation, renewal, and the transition into an empowered stage of life.
Why the Cicada? The cicada develops beneath the surface before emerging into a new form with wings. This creates a powerful metaphor for students: true growth often happens in quiet preparation before it becomes visible to the world. The wings represent freedom and possibility, while the upward visual energy represents the very act of ascending.
"You don't simply change. You grow, evolve, and eventually—you ASCEND."
The Visual Language
Every visual component of EMERGE 2026 has been engineered to reflect the philosophy of ascension, youth ambition, and high-energy creative evolution.
