The goal is to help UNI shine
In today’s crowded higher education landscape, we need to effectively share what differentiates UNI from the competition. Doing this requires us to understand who we are as an institution, what we stand for and how to make the Panther experience exceptional.

After two years of extensive research and collaborative creative development, the University of Northern Iowa today unveiled its new brand identity, which includes a comprehensive brand strategy, updated website, new recruitment and communications materials, and a new institutional logo.
Having employer-ready graduates is a priority at UNI Business. Part of that focus means helping students obtain professional certifications and credentials — like Certified Public Accountant (CPA), Certified Financial Planner, Six Sigma Green Belt, etc. — before graduation, boosting their marketability for companies and making them career ready.
