The shield is tierced per bend. Its upper part, in chief, is yellow with the red Sacred-Heart crowned with  spines. Yellow symbolizes the sun, the fire, nobleness and charity. Its lower part, in point, is blue with a yellow lamp, which symbolizes the scientific thought. Blue symbolizes justice, gentleness, innocence and devotion.

The whole is inscribed on a grey coat.
