About NUK

University Emblem
 
logo

Action Force as Storm Surge
Fulfilling Dreams and Goals
Passing Down the Seeds of Wisdom
Nurturing the Buds of Hope
Established in 2000

The three dots in the emblem represent an abstract image of the Chinese character . Different sizes of the spots, from small to large, are like the growing process of a seed. It also symbolizes waves which imply the surging force that moves forward. The emblem is designed based on the Chinese character rather than using English words because we want to preserve our cultural features and ethnic origin when NUK becomes internationally well-known in the future. The vigorous, optimistic and innovative impressions of NUK are delivered by the bright orange color. Grey is the most tolerant and steadiest color that can match any other color. This emblem displays the features of NUK: vigor, optimism, innovation, steadiness and tolerance, which are also essential learning attitudes that students have to develop in addition to the knowledge in the textbooks.
