At ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø, we break barriers. Our latest initiative, NEIU For You, breaks a financial barrier by offering first-year, full-time undergraduate students a scholarship to cover tuition and mandatory fees for Fall 2021 and Spring 2022! It also covers the cost of a three credit hour course for all new undergraduate transfer students who register for six credit hours or more for Fall 2021. Read about this exciting opportunity, new ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø inductees to a prestigious honor society,  the benefits of incorporating music into your self-care routine and more in this week’s edition of Noteworthy at ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø!

Four ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø students, under the direction of three professors and in partnership with the EPA and the Student Center for Science Engagement, spent 10 weeks of the summer studying the impacts of air pollution.

ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø is hosting three Diversifying Higher Education Faculty in Illinois (DFI) fellows during the 2020-21 academic year. This State of Illinois program is designed to increase the number of minority, full-time, tenure-track faculty and staff who work in the state’s public and private colleges and universities. 

The College of Arts and Sciences has made name changes to two departments as well as a major and a minor to highlight new course offerings. Students can continue to register for the New Multicultural Student Orientation sessions and remote Safe Zone Training sessions for faculty begin next week. Read about all this and more in this week’s edition of Noteworthy at ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø.
