===Origin/meaning=== | ===Origin/meaning=== | ||
The lion, identical to the one which appears in the Coat of Arms of the [[National University of Singapore]], signifies the close link between NTI and NUS. | |||
The battlement symbolises the School of Civil and Structural Engineering while the atomic symbols refer to the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering. The cog-wheel represents the School of Mechanical and Production Engineering and is also a traditional reference to engineering and technology in general. These three were the original Schools set up with the founding of the Nanyang Technological Institute, the predecessor institution of NTU. | |||
