The nine faculties that form UASD have their own flags, similar to the UASD flag (horizontally divided indigo blue-white) but with their own emblem in the middle instead of the university's emblem. In some official events, the flags of the faculties are placed on the podium together with the flags of Dominican Republic and UASD.
The flags are best seen in a photo taken during the graduation ceremony held on 24 August 2014 at UASD-Higüey. From right to left (according to the order of presentation of the faculties on the UASD website):
- Faculty of Humanities
- Faculty of Sciences (concealed by the national flag)
- Faculty of Economical and Social Sciences
- Faculty of Juridical and Political Sciences
- Faculty of Engineering and Architecture
- Faculty of Health Sciences
- Faculty of Agronomic and Veterinary Sciences
- Faculty of Art
- Faculty of Education Sciences
The flag of the Faculty of Sciences is visible on a video footage.
The flags are also displayed during the opening ceremony of the Tony Barreiro Games.

The Faculty of Art, which already existed at the foundation of the university, was re-established by Resolution No. 76 of 16 May 2001.
The coat of arms of the Faculty of Art was designed by the architect Fernando Suncar, then Director of the Faculty, the visual artist and professor Julián Amado Ortiz, and the student Yajahira Altagracia Maríñez Lara.
The emblem is organized around the icon of Alma Mater, described in Article 136 of the UASD Statutes as the representation "of the Nourishing Mother, symbol of the source of learning that drenches people to feed them with the scientific knowledge elaborated, transmitted and divulged by the institution". Coloured in white, the Alma Mater represents the source of learning, as well as virginity and purity of knowledge. She holds in her left hand the UASD coat of arms and is sitting on an open book. The Faculty of Arts is the sole faculty to feature a symbolic figure on its coat of arms. The representation of the Alma Mater slightly differs from the official statue designed by Benjamín Saúl (1924-1980), a noted Spanish sculptor who spent most of his life in El Salvador.
The open book represents the abundance of knowledge as food, open as a sign of receptivity. It also represents the book of life, the learning process, revelation and the spirit of knowledge. It symbolizes science and knowledge that feed the different generations through teaching and education provided by the institution. The cover of the book forms two big wings, symbols of the merging knowledge and of destiny. They represent both the protecting wings of the spirit and spirituality as a way to transcendency. The book and the wings together represent substance and creative principle.
The wings symbolize liberty and the wings of imagination. They also represents the power of communication and connection of space and time, between the spiritual and the material realms. The spread wings represent protection provided by learning and knowledge. Four wings - two big and two smaller - are indeed represented, as a symbol of vigilance and perpetual motion.
The Alma Mater is crowned by an element made of basic figures arranged concentrically, as a symbol of universality, placed in the order of the elements in the cosmos and the inhabited world. They represent the divine, human and natural dimensions, the human being being the mediator between the natural and spiritual worlds.
The circle is a universal symbol representing the cosmos' totality and integrality, like the sky, natural and perfect. It is the outer shape that frames all elements, representing everything that can be contained inside it and a cycle completion.
The square represents living on earth. Combined with the circle, the square represents the integration of the spiritual and material dimensions, or the transformation of spirit. The intersections between the circle and the square form four segments representing the earth's quarters and indicating the cardinal directions. A secondary quarter seems to rotate, also arranged concentrically, recalling a rhombus reiterating the creative principle.
The triangles are reiterated inside the square, emphasizing the triple nature of the universe: the sky, the earth and the human being, or the eternity connected to the ultimate figure formed by the intersection, a star.
The eight-pointed stars irradiate vectorial lines merging into the triangles; They represent the supreme power as the union of the contraries or the perfect balance between complementary forces. The oval border of the shield is charged with 100 equidistant disks associated with the multiples disciplines of knowledge taught at UASD and with the interdisciplinary character of art and its incidence on human beings.
The writing "Universidad Autónoma de Santo Domingo, 1538" is separated from "Faculdad" by a circle representing universality; "Faculdad" is separated from "de Artes" by a triangle symbolizing balance; "de Artes" is followed by a square representing completeness and the earth. The cross, borrowed from the UASD coat of arms, confirms the belonging of the faculty to UASD since its early beginning and appears as a focal point and axis of equilibrium of the base of the shield. The writing uses the sans serif face type Gill Sans Ultra Bold.
The pure white colour and the golden yellow background represent light and God's grace, as the origin of everything. White is a symbol of transcendency, illumination, purity and chastity. It is also a symbol of the sacred and divine character of the revealed truth. Yellow is a symbol of wealth and immortality, indicating permanence and perfection. [Source]
On the flag, the border of the coat of arms is similar to the border of the UASD and other faculties' coat of arms, without the ornamentation of the coat of arms prescribed for use on printed material.

The Faculty of Education Sciences was established on 17 September 2008.
The coat of arms of the Faculty of Education Sciences is divided into three parts. The upper left part is charged with a column representing knowledge. The upper right part is charged with people sitting around a table, representing participation and integration. The lower half is charged with the black letters "FCE" for "Facultad de Ciencias de la Educación." The colour of the faculty is bone white (clear cream), meaning distinction and force.
