Seal
The seal represents the centerpiece of the Democracy Monument, Bangkok, which itself honours the Thai Constitution of 1932. It is superimposed on a Dharmacakra, or Wheel of Law, symbolising the Dharmaśāstra, the university's name in Pali.
The university's 70th anniversary was honoured with a commemorative 10-baht coin. The obverse depicts King Bhumibol Adulyadej as a young man in student attire, the reverse having the university seal encircled by the university's name, "70 years", and 27 June 2547 BE (2004).
