The survey came to the UI in 2014 after initially living as a bureau within the Iowa Department of Natural Resources. Since then, it has worked on 186 projects that have taken its researchers to nearly every county in the state.

Kumar Vijay Mishra, who earned a PhD in electrical engineering at University of Iowa in 2015, was selected for the 2024 IEEE SPS Pierre-Simon Laplace Early Career Technical Achievement Award.

Craig Just at the University of Iowa has sought an affordable wastewater solution for small towns. Now, through Just’s research, partnerships, and persistence, a pilot system in Dow City appears poised to meet federal wastewater treatment regulations. The technology would then be available for hundreds of small towns in Iowa.
