For more than 140 years, UConn has prepared students to lead the future. Since our founding, we’ve been an engine for innovation, a catalyst of change, and a launching point for meaningful careers in nearly every industry.

Our mission is unwavering, but the world is changing. With technological advancements, emerging environmental issues and pressing global challenges, UConn must be ready for what’s happening now and in the future. This means making significant and transformative investments in our institution, in our programs and in our people.

That’s why we’re embarking on our most ambitious campaign ever. And we’re counting on you and the entire Husky Nation to help us reach our goals.
