Utah State University
School Description
Provided by Utah State UniversitySince its founding in 1888, Utah State University has evolved from a small, agricultural college to one that is nationally and internationally recognized for its intellectual and technological leadership in land, water, space, and life enhancement. As Utah's land-grant and space-grant institution, the university is led by President Stan L. Albrecht and has 850 faculty who provide education for more than 23,000 undergraduate and graduate students, including 10,000 in its continuing education sites located throughout the state of Utah. USU occupies 7,000 acres, 400 of which are on campus, with more than 200 buildings, 63 of which are devoted to academics. USU also has 3 branch campuses and Extension offices in all of Utah's 29 counties.
Utah State University is one of the nation’s premier student-centered land-grant and space-grant universities. We foster the principle that academics come first; we cultivate diversity of thought and culture; and we serve the public through learning, discovery, and engagement.
Located in the city of Logan in northern Utah's Cache Valley, Utah State is 80 miles northeast of Salt Lake City and is within a day's driving distance of six national parks. The surrounding area, including ski resorts, lakes, rivers and mountains, makes Utah State one of the finest recreational environments in the nation. The university is a place of diverse thought, where first-rate cultural offerings provided by talented professors and visiting artists benefit thousands of students and members of the community. It is a safe place that provides a unique living-learning community and is the oldest and largest public residential campus in Utah.
Utah State University
From Wikipedia, The Free EncyclopediaUtah State University (USU) is a public land-grant university whose main campus is located in Logan, Utah.
It was established in 1888, after Anthon H. Lund introduced a bill for its creation. Originally known as the Agricultural College of Utah, its name was subsequently changed to Utah State Agricultural College, and in 1957 it became Utah State University. USU has 870 faculty, and over 23,000 students that were enrolled in autumn 2006. USU is accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities. USU has longstanding ties with the Department of Defense and NASA, and conducts extensive aerospace research.
Academics
As Utah's land-grant university, USU conducts research into many agricultural and natural resource disciplines. USU contains seven academic colleges and 47 individual departments, and offers degrees in more than 200 majors.
Beyond its Logan campus, Utah State's Extension community provides academic resources and support for the state as a whole, including a Continuing Education program. Created in 1907, Extension now includes USU Regional Campuses at Brigham City, Tooele, and the Uintah Basin, as well as USU Centers at Moab, Ogden, Price, and Salt Lake City. USU also operates Extension locations in each of Utah's 29 counties.
USU is known for its Space Dynamics Laboratory (SDL). The SDL is a research facility focusing on military and science applications. It frequently submits projects to the Department of Defense and NASA. According to the most recent National Science Foundation statistics, USU ranked first among all universities in the U.S. in funding for aerospace research. Other USU research centers include the Center for Persons with Disabilities, the USU Ecology Center, the Utah Agriculture Experiment Station, and the Utah Water Research Laboratory. The Intermountain Herbarium, operated by the Department of Biology, contains more than 245,000 specimens of native and introduced flora, fauna, and fungi from Utah and the American West. USU also operates research facilities beyond its main campus in Logan, including the Utah Botanical Center in Kaysville, north of Salt Lake City.

Question: Is Utah State University have a large Mormon population?I realize all schools have a fair amount of religious people. I just wanted to know just about how big of a population makes up Utah State. Everyone knows Utah has a reputation for being Mormon country...so I was just wondering.10 months ago
Best AnswerI am an Atheist going, ironically, to Utah State. As Lord Butters says, it is odd. My rough estimate would be that 85% to 90% of the students are mormon. Most of the ones that aren't are international students, and even some of them are mormon. So, yeah. That pretty much sums it up for ya. |
Question: What is the GPA and sat score that you need to get into Utah State University?im a 10th grader in high school i just wanted to know :)15 months ago
Best AnswerThe easiest way to find out info is to contact a student. You can start looking for contact information for Utah universities here. http://www.collegereviewed.com/Utah-Colleges-Universities.html The students always to know what's going on since they get to experience the classes and the lifestyle. |
Question: Has anyone ever been to Utah State University?thoughts, comments? I'm not Mormon but I live in southern Utah and am curious about any colleges in Utah. Thanks!16 months ago
Best AnswerI went to Utah State University. USU is awesome!!! I graduated a few years ago and really miss it. I miss it so much I hope that I can return to be a professor some day. Here are what I would call my plusses: - Cache Valley and campus are beautiful! Right at the foot of the mountains - Tons of stuff to do in the area outdoors and indoors - Great faculty that know you by name - Class sizes are usually just-right. Some are large auditorium classes, but the majority are smaller - Great sports / athletics whether you're an athlete or just a fan... I did fencing team, and tons of intramurals. Only down side right now is the football team - Tons of research opportunity / money... I had a research job my sophomore year... USU is a Carnegie school.... when I was there, we were sending more experiments into space than any other university - One of the must-do traditions is to kiss on an "A" platform to become a "true aggie".... gotta love a tradtion like that. - Good economy, you can find jobs on or off campus - Very social environment... it definitely has the real-college feel to it - The people in the community are really nice - Great tuition prices compared to other places outside the state - Low cost of living in Cache Valley I could go on forever. I think you'll have a blast and get a great education while you're at it. I've been to three other universities in other states as a student since graduating from USU and none of them come close. They don't have the scenery, social life, and academic feel that USU has. And I wasn't mormon when I decided to go there, and I felt very at-home regardless. I am mormon now, but even after I became mormon I had several friends at USU that weren't mormon and they are some of my best frieds to this day, so that shouldn't be an issue either. Good luck, and Go Aggies!! |
Question: Utah State University?Hey. I'm looking for a little bit of feedback from those who have attended/currently attending Utah State University in Logan, Utah. I have some family that lives in Logan and I am considering transferring to USU this fall. Does anyone have anything they can share with me? What the campus is like? What are the classes/professors like? Student activities, etc? I like what I have seen of it, but I must admit that I haven't seen too much. Any feedback/opinions would be greatly appreciated.33 months ago
Best AnswerI went to USU for a year before I got married and moved to SLC. I have been to three Universities in Utah(Weber, Uof U and USU) and of all of them USU was the best. It is not a commuter school so everybody lives really close by campus. There are lots of student activities especially with the LDS institute. I loved it. Lots of cute girls and fun times. Professors are pretty good in the Civil Engineering department I couldn't tell you about other departments. Come be a fellow aggie and with any luck a "True Aggie" |
