The University of Northern Iowa held steady as the Midwest’s #2-ranked public regional university while its computer science program, veteran-friendliness and overall value ratings increased substantially in annual rankings published today by U.S. News & World Report.
The magazine grades universities on student outcomes, graduation and student retention rates, faculty resources, and student excellence as well as surveys of higher education experts, among other factors.
There are some changes at UNI you might notice this week.
There’s a new logo, sleek in its modern simplicity. There’s a new website homepage, streamlined and dynamic. In the coming months, you might notice UNI sounding different, looking different. Perhaps even feeling different.
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.
We want UNI to stand out - to be the clear choice for all prospective students and faculty. The new brand is where all those efforts begin.
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.
