This website is your source for information and will provide you with the tools you need to clearly define the University of Ottawa, and its characteristics and present it to Canadians and the world.
Our visual identity
Inspired by an earlier version of the University of Ottawa's logo, the new logo features the dominant architectural elements of Tabaret Hall, but have been redrawn and refined. The result is a contemporary logo that nevertheless reflects tradition. Tabaret Hall is a recognized historical landmark at the University of Ottawa. Thus, using a graphic representation of Tabaret Hall creates an immediate link with the University in the viewer's mind. The emblem and the logotype are the basic elements of the University's visual identity.
