Clear space and minimum sizes

The following clear space and minimum size requirements apply to all University of Waterloo faculty, department, school and non-academic logo formats.

Ensure that clear space and minimum sizes take into account the white border around the shield.

Clear space

Recommended clear space around the logo has been provided to ensure its visibility and impact. No other graphic element should appear within the clear space.

In cases where the faculty, department, school or non- academic name extend wider than the University of Waterloo text, the clear space should be measured from the widest portion of the logo as shown below.
