The College of Engineering at the University of Iowa has joined KEEN: The Kern Entrepreneurial Engineering Network, a partnership of more than 60 colleges and universities across the United States focused on reaching “all undergraduate engineering students with an entrepreneurial mindset (EM) so they can create personal, economic, and societal value through a lifetime of meaningful work.”

The College of Engineering is pleased to welcome four new faculty members this month. Each brings knowledge, expertise, and diverse perspectives that will enrich our academic community. Please join us in welcoming them to the college.
