MATR Sponsor (view all)
As the state’s flagship university, UConn conducts ground-breaking research, works to better the lives of Connecticut’s residents, and educates students who will become tomorrow’s leaders and scholars.
What tends to be less apparent is the vital role that a top public university such as ours also plays in contributing to our region’s economic well-being. As a leading higher education institution, UConn is also responsible for fostering the kind of innovative thinking that will ultimately lead to the creation of jobs and thriving new business ventures.
Fortunately, we are seeing the state’s recent investments in this area beginning to take shape – investments that respond to a critical need to revitalize Connecticut’s economy over the course of these next few years.
