Logo
The old logo of IEEE AUST Student Branch
The old logo was an amalgamation of two separate logos, that of IEEE on the left and the logo of AUST on the right. However, the logo of IEEE was slightly deformed and the letterings, IEEE were shrank to fit properly.
Why the Revamping?
According to the IEEE Policies (Section 6.3.2-C), it is not permissible to include either the IEEE Logotype or the IEEE Diamond-shaped emblem in its exact form in the logo of an Organizational Unit.
The old logo of IEEE AUST SB violated the rule of IEEE Master Brand policy and needed to be redesigned accordingly.
What was kept in mind during redesigning?
High emphases were given so that the logo should
- represent the modern thinking of IEEE AUST Student Branch and also at the same time reflect the legacy the branch holds,
- be meaningful,
- be recognizable and should be easily associated with the branch,
- be visually appealing,
- be easily memorable,
- look pleasing in either dark or light backgrounds,
- be recognizable in monochrome.

Color Palette
The colors are vital in representing the branch.
