Establish national and international competencies and provide leadership in select educational areas connected to the regional economy and assets: advanced manufacturing; arts and culture; entrepreneurship and innovation; fresh water studies; health care; renewable energy and sustainability; and value added agriculture. Our region is host to unique natural, cultural and economic resources. We are striving to craft programs that prepare our students–from the region, the country, and world–to best use those resources for the benefit of everyone.
