What is Discover Your University?

Discover Your University helps Iowa faculty and staff discover great things happening around campus.

The program offers sponsored visits to various campus sites during normal working hours, providing opportunities to learn about innovative programs like our water treatment facility or power plant.

Discover Your University lets individuals and teams experience the breadth of incredible work going on at the university and discover something new, surprising, or inspiring.

The program launched in fall 2022. This year, the water treatment facility operated by ENGIE will be featured during the October 18 event. Sign up for a tour here.

All Faculty and Staff Welcome

Discover Your University is open to all Iowa faculty and staff. Faculty and staff—individually or as teams—can take part in up to two events (on the same day or on different days) each year.

Iowa’s Educational Opportunities policy encourages participation in educational and developmental programs like Discover Your University. In addition, the Volunteer Time Release policy supports activities that enhance community engagement.
