The flag of the university has a white field with its emblem in colour in the centre.  The emblem comprises a light blue lozenge in the centre of which is an open book and rising sun, superimposed on which is a black cog-wheel and red five-pointed star.  Below are the words Ensino (teaching), Investigacão (investigation) and Produção (production/output) and a scroll containing the name of the university below the name of the country in Portuguese.
