Marks and Support Graphics
Seal
Our seal is the visual symbol of the university. It includes the word “Irvine” at the bottom and is only appropriate for the most formal applications and expressions of identity as a stand-alone graphic element. As the UCI seal loses its clarity and depth when printed, it should not be used on the web, nor should it be cropped in any applications.
The seals cannot be modified in any way. For additional information or guidance, email graphicservices@uci.edu.
For permission to use UCI seals, please email graphicservices@uci.edu or call 949-824-6922.

Support Graphics
Bright Mark
Our bright mark is a support graphic that helps us to express our brand.
As an abstract mark, it has no single meaning, but instead supports many ideas around education – illuminating knowledge, a bright idea, a brilliant performance or a shining example. It’s mathematical in nature and connotes science, energy and beauty.
The 12-pointed version is used for smaller or quieter applications.
The 16-pointed version is used for larger or more dynamic applications.

Unacceptable Usage
Here are some examples of incorrect usage of the bright mark.
In order for our bright mark to be bright, we must ensure that the substrate and/or background color on which it is placed, be darker than that of the mark itself.
There should be adequate contrast between the bright mark and the background.
Do not create patterns using the bright mark.
Do not use the bright mark at a size smaller than 1/2 inch.
