Estonian University of Life Sciences

Estonian University of Life Sciences is the only university in Estonia whose priorities in academic and research activities provide the sustainable development of natural resources necessary for the existence of Man as well as the reservation of heritage and habitat. According to QS World University Rankings by Subject (2019), the Estonian University of Life Sciences is one of top 50 universities in the world in the field of agriculture and forestry, ranked 48. The university also belongs to the top 1% most cited research facilities in the world.

The EMÜ (Estonian University of Life Sciences) logo symbol is an “ancient symbol of the goddess, the womb, fertility, continual change, and the evolution of the universe”. To reflect life sciences the spiral has been styled to suggest a sprouting seed. A spiral is a naturally dynamic shape and the efficient lines of the symbol lend it further depth and energy. The symbol is framed in a green space which is curved at the top; perhaps a reference to the globe or the environment – yet the symbol seems to be trying to break-out of this space; perhaps a reference to extending beyond “Eesti” and the role of the university in the international scientific community.
