In honor of Women’s History Month, a new exhibit to celebrate Women in STEM is on display at the National Mall in Washington DC.
Out of 120 women featured in the exhibit, two of the women are graduates of UNI – both hailing from the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry: Dr. Jennifer Stimpson (Chemistry M.A., 1996) and Dr. Raychelle Burks (Chemistry B.S., 2001).
The new year brings a re-envisioned future for the University of Northern Iowa’s most industry-focused department – solidifying UNI’s commitment to bolstering Iowa’s workforce in some of the fastest growing fields.
Formerly known as the Department of Technology, UNI is pleased to announce that the department has changed its name to the Department of Applied Engineering and Technical Management, effective immediately.
It's easy to call Professor Tim Kidd busy. From working with NASA and the Department of Energy, to creating new courses, serving on United Faculty and publishing over fifty peer-reviewed journal articles, he keeps his calendar very full.
The UNI chapter of the Society of Physics Students has received a 2021 Outstanding Chapter Award from the Society of Physics Students National Council. This award is typically received by less that 15% of all SPS chapters across the nation. This year, this honor has been bestowed on just 80 of 844 chapters.
$44.8 million renovation of the UNI Industrial Technology Center will prepare future manufacturing, construction, technology education workforce
The effort to modernize the facility housing the Department of Technology culminated in a
major milestone in the summer of 2020.
A $4.27 million private fundraising campaign for the Industrial Technology
Center (ITC) modernization project will provide students in the Department
of Technology with access to technology-enhanced classrooms and lab
spaces, directly benefiting students like Maria Alverio.
Two of the University of Northern Iowa (UNI) Department of Technology’s longstanding
industry partners announced lead gifts to the Industrial Technology Center (ITC) modernization
in 2021.
