In 2008, the university held a competition on who could design a new logo.[1] The winning logo's core elements were exactly the same as those of theEmblem of the Macao Special Administrative Region, which was first published in 1992 and legally adopted in 1993 through a congressional resolution by the8th National People's Congress of China.[2][3] Thisplagiarism issue had been reported and criticized by the Macau media.[2][4] The logo was submitted by Abdullah K., who insisted it was an original creation despite being almost identical to the Emblem of the Macau SAR.[2] Kırklareli University decided not to pay the logo submitter the award money of 4,000 Turkish Lira due to plagiarism concerns surrounding the winning logo, even though it was adopted as the official school logo in practice.[1]
