Design
Each element in the design contains symbolism carrying a hidden message for the graduate.
The image on the obverse depicts a tree growing out of an open book, with a flock of birds flying out from its lush crown. It is an allegory for the knowledge cultivated through education, personal development, and growth.
The composition on the reverse resembles a coat of arms, with an owl perched on top. The owl represents knowledge, erudition, and affluence, with an inferred deeper meaning - wisdom and longevity. The inscription "Випуск 2023" (Class of 2023) specifies the year of graduation. The shield is framed by a laurel wreath - an ancient symbol of triumph.

The book and the tree
The open book symbolizes learning and knowledge, and the tree - growth, regeneration and starting over. The combination of the two elements is a metaphorical representation of the lifelong process of acquiring new knowledge and skills.
The laurel wreath
The significance of the laurel wreath originated in Greek mythology, where it was tied to the god Apollo. The legend tells the story of the love between him and the nymph Daphne, daughter of Peneus, a Thessalian river god - when the gods transformed her into an evergreen laurel, the grieving Apollo weaves a wreath out of her branches and places it upon his head so that he may always keep his beloved close. All ancient temples dedicated to Apollo were adorned with laurel twigs.
The symbol was later revived by the Roman Empire, where it took on a new meaning - it became an emblem of the emperor, a visual expression of their power and strength. Its meaning gradually gained a triumphal aspect - victorious Roman generals would be decorated with laurel wreathes as an expression of glory, success and courage on the battlefield.
This symbolism has lasted through the ages - laurel leaves were commonly used in the heraldry of various European countries, and today they are largely known as an honor reserved for “laureates” - people with exceptional achievements in the fields of science, sports, art and more.
The owl
Cultures from all over the world see birds as heavenly messengers. For thousands of years, owls have been associated with knowledge, learning, erudition and affluence, and in ancient times they were companions to Athena, goddess of wisdom, and her Roman equivalent Minerva. Today the owl is considered a talisman for good luck in exams, interviews and other challenges.
