Seek deeper understanding.
At UConn, our faculty, staff, and students are dedicated to learning more about the world around them through research. That’s what makes us one of the nation’s Top 25 public universities. With annual expenditures in excess of $260 million, collaborative research is carried out within the departments of our 14 schools and colleges and at our more than 80 research centers and institutes.
We’re here to drive the future of innovation. Businesses can partner with us to tap into myriad resources, from the thousands of scientists on our faculty to our Technology Incubation Program and beyond.
We help make groundbreaking advancements in emerging areas, working to enhance the nation’s hardware security at the Center for Hardware Assurance, Security, and Engineering; figuring out how to build everything from jet engines to spaceship parts using advanced three-dimensional printing technology at the Pratt & Whitney Additive Manufacturing Innovation Center; developing sustainable energy systems at the Center for Clean Energy Engineering; and so much more.
It’s all here.
Storrs is a town-within-a-town, and there’s plenty here to make you feel at home. A diverse community, countless activities and forms of entertainment, and UConn sporting events are just the tip of the iceberg.
Build your own community by getting involved in your choice of more than 700 student clubs or organizations, or by living among peers with common interests in one of our Living/Learning Communities. Learn about other cultures or discover more about your own through our six cultural centers.
Of course, what’s college without some fun? At UConn, we offer plenty of popular, safe, and often free activities right on campus. With a movie theater, game room, TV lounges, and a food court, the Student Union has it all. Rather view an art exhibit or check out a stand-up comedian? We’ve got that, too. Dozens of lectures, plays, and concerts provide a much-deserved break.
On-campus dining options suit every taste, ranging from buffet-style dining halls and take-out “Grab & Gos” to sit-down restaurants and cafés. Downtown Storrs, a walkable town center full of shops and restaurants, is just steps away.
If all that isn’t enough, our picturesque campus is a beautiful place to explore.
