The knowledge and skills I gained at UIS were instrumental in advancing my career. Thanks to the hands-on experience I had during my studies, I was able to advance my leadership roles with confidence and a solid foundation.
The Division of Advancement is seeking projects to consider for awarding one-time (non-reoccurring) money from the UIS Fund. Throughout the year, UIS alumni, employees and friends make contributions to the UIS Fund, the overall unrestricted gift fund for UIS. This fund provides maximum flexibility in advancing UIS.

My experience at UIS fostered an environment where I could stay deeply focused on both professional and personal growth. The close-knit campus community, intimate class sizes, and supportive faculty created a space where I could truly invest in myself and my future. During my time there, I came to understand that determination, discipline, and service to others are essential, fulfilling, and deeply rewarding.
