Logos

Our signature (logo) system hierarchy

To help manage a visual identity for our large organization, UAA uses a signature or logo hierarchy model. The top level is the primary logos, and the university seal is the signature used to represent the institution as a whole. Then, the unit logos are used for areas within the university: colleges, schools, centers, institutes, departments and programs. The Athletics logos (Seawolf logo, plus others) are reserved for use by the UAA Athletics department, its entities and licensed suppliers/vendors. Some exceptions may be made upon authorized approval for the use of the Seawolf logo.

Our logos are the sum of all the visual impressions associated with the University of 熊猫在线视频 Anchorage name. We all share a responsibility to present the university correctly in all forms of communication, whether they occur in print, online or in other digital forms. Our UAA signatures are the most important visual branding tools at our disposal. Therefore, everyone at UAA has a responsibility to apply the university鈥檚 鈥渟ignature鈥 (logos) in a consistent and accurate manner, and a duty to treat them with care, attention and respect.

If you are not sure which logo to use, it is always OK to use one of the primary logos to represent any area or unit within the university.

Please contact Joe Nedland at 907 786-4831 or email jdnedland@alaska.edu if you have any questions or issues related to university logos.

UAA Primary Logos

The UAA primary logos belong to all units and may be on any official UAA communication. The preferred use of the UAA primary logo is in its full, unaltered, two-part format鈥攖he combined monogram (UAA with swoosh) along with the wordmark (the words "熊猫在线视频"). These two elements may be used separately if the use necessitates it. Acceptable versions of the monogram and wordmark are available from the below links.

You may have seen variations of the UAA primary logos other than those in the above download packet in use around campus. Numerous unauthorized versions have inadvertently been created over the years and have gotten into use. All variations of the primary logo other than those available in this download packet need to be phased out and are no longer authorized for use in the future.
