Designed by Jonathan Brown of Strathmore Woollen Company in Forfar for Dundee University. The design incorporates the colours of the Scottish Saltire (St. Andrew’s cross) which reflects the historic association with St. Andrew’s University from 1897 to 1967. The red and gold of the crown of Scotland refers to the name of the Queen’s College, bestowed (in 1954) as a mark of royal favour. In 1967 the University of Dundee became an independent university, and the four main colours (red, gold, purple and blue) represent the four colleges of the University.
