The flag of the Federal University of Santa Catarina in Brazil is seen on the university web page. It consists of a blue field, a central yellow disk and blue-line symbol on that.
The flag of the UFSC was created in 1971 by the artist Hiedy de Assis Corrêa;
it consists of two “U”s graphically played, joined. The designer describes it as
“a center of life energy, where its continuous lines cross the same ideal, from
there is a bridge for human relationships, the open university, conscience,
community and development”. The colors follow the field of the arms of the UFSC,
blue and yellow: the rectangular blue area symbolizes the Universe, while the
yellow circumference symbolizes the Sun, the center of energy, the university
campus.
