Cornell is a privately endowed research university and a partner of the State University of New York. As the federal land-grant institution in New York State, we have a responsibility—unique within the Ivy League—to make contributions in all fields of knowledge in a manner that prioritizes public engagement to help improve the quality of life in our state, the nation, the world.
On our beautiful campus spanning the Iowa River, our faculty and staff enjoy access to an array of cultural, educational, and recreational activities. With more than 30,000 students, more than 14,000 employees, and a budget of $3 billion, the University of Iowa is one of the nation's top public research universities.
The University of Northern Iowa prides itself on putting students first, and has a reputation for providing exceptional undergraduate education. U.S. News and World Report has consistently ranked UNI among the top several midwest public universities. The university's medium size allows it to offer the facilities and academic choices of a major university while retaining a friendly, small-college atmosphere."
