Academics
It's not enough to have great ideas. You have to know how to share them.
And that's what you'll learn at Iowa. Our leadership in creative writing has fostered the broadest array of writing- and communications-focused resources anywhere. Whatever area of study you pursue, you'll learn how to make your ideas heard.
Iowa's all about the two things employers value most: communication and collaboration. At Iowa, you'll share big ideas, work with fellow Hawkeyes across disciplines, and connect with faculty dedicated to helping you succeed. Iowa blends big school opportunities with focused personal attention, giving you all the support you need to excel. That's why Hawkeyes graduate ready to make an impact, and why Iowa is the right place to start your professional story.
