Welcome from the President
Greetings and welcome to Kansas State University! This is an exciting time to be at Kansas State University. We are collaboratively planning to take the university to the top 50 among the nation's public universities via our K-State 2025 plan. Please visit the 2025 website for details on this effort. Faculty, staff, students, alumni and friends have contributed ideas and suggestions and we are starting work on this challenging goal.
Kansas State's faculty frequently are recognized for their superb teaching. We are the only public university with three national CASE/Carnegie Professors of the Year. This award is for excellence in undergraduate teaching. We also are committed to making our undergraduate experience the best in the nation. K-State offers a classic college experience in a beautiful location.
Our outstanding faculty are pursuing more research grants than ever before, publishing in prominent journals, and bringing their research results to the people of the state and nation. Our undergraduates have the opportunity to work alongside the nation's best researchers in their labs on projects that will make a difference in people's lives. I continue to be impressed with all of the outstanding programs and successes of our faculty, staff, and students and the passion K-Staters have for their university.
