The university emblem is a combination of the initials N and U of NARA UNIVERSITY and is an important center of visual communication. While taking into account modern sensibilities and internationality, it symbolizes the harmony between people, Japan and the world, with intelligence and elegance befitting an academic institution, and with a tradition reminiscent of a coat of arms.
