We Are Idaho's Flagship University
We were founded to make a world of difference.
The University of Idaho's role in the state's economic prosperity dates back to our inception! Our research-driven, innovative spirit began in agriculture, engineering and military sciences. We continue this tradition today, making an impact on all areas of industry. From providing a high-quality, accessible education — to leading breakthroughs in clean water, cybersecurity, healthcare, agronomics and fire science — we forge partnerships to improve the lives of all Idahoans.
