The Right Idea
The Word’s Out
From the Vice Chancellor
UNC Greensboro is redefining the public research university for the 21st century. With over $36 million annually in external funding and a rich array of scholarship, we are making a difference in lives and communities in North Carolina and beyond.
But what does that really look like?
First, there’s our primary mission: fostering student success, to ensure a well-prepared workforce for the future. The student scholarship in this issue illustrates not only the quality of the students graduating from UNCG, but also the critical skills, honed by research experience, that our students bring to their careers and employers.
