Welcome to The University of Iowa!
For more than 150 years, the UI has served as our state’s flagship comprehensive institution of higher education. I am privileged and honored to be leading The University of Iowa into the 21st century. We are advancing our state’s tradition of excellence in education through high quality programs in teaching, research, and service. We continue to rank among the nation’s best in many areas, from the arts and humanities, to business, to the health sciences. At Iowa, we’ve nurtured innovation and creativity across and between disciplines for decades, and we’ve been committed to making our educational programs accessible to people from diverse walks of life and cultural backgrounds since our inception. And we keep our eye on the future, responding to the new challenges of a global, interdependent, multicultural, and technologically advanced society.
Our aim is to provide the best educational experience for each and every one of our students. Our campus is changing to meet 21st- century educational needs. New buildings for medical research, journalism and the liberal arts and sciences, art and art history, and our honors programs are well under way. We are grateful to the State of Iowa and our friends for helping us provide the best facilities for the highest quality educational and research programs possible.
