ethics and diversity. The world is taking notice: In less than a decade, we’ve more than doubled our out-of-state student enrollment and boosted the number of bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral degrees awarded each year by 52 percent.

In a decade of expansion, Boise State invested $70 million in athletics facilities that have become the envy of our peers, at the same time

spending another $200 million on academic, residential and other student-centered projects across campus.

WHAT MAKES OUR UNIVERSITY SPECIAL? From our Distinguished Lecture Series, the world-class entertainment found at The Morrison Center and Taco Bell Arena, and a commitment to a healthy campus, we want you to consider Boise State a home away from home as much as an esteemed place of learning. We want you to question, to critique, to have fun and most importantly, to succeed.

Whether you aspire to devote your life to helping medical patients breathe with ease or plan to jump app-first into Boise’s explosive tech scene, you’ll find all of the elements to thrive on campus: knowledgeable faculty and staff, a diverse body of peers eager to learn and grow with you, and hundreds of student groups and extracurricular activities ready to inject you with a healthy dose of Bronco pride.

Speaking of pride, the overlap between Bronco pride and Boise pride is strong. Thousands of Boise residents made the pilgrimage to Arizona to cheer us on to three Fiesta Bowl wins in recent years. Conversely, when music-loving residents founded Treefort, a five-day DIY music festival, Boise State jumped in to sponsor a complementary technology-themed conference called Hackfort that even caught the attention of the President of the United States.
