Illinois Extension embodies the land grant mission of University of Illinois, providing applied research and education to address societal grand challenges and local issues.
One of the main goals of the Illini Science Scholars Program is to allow scholars to consider work in the public sector. Many are continuing to do good work for communities in Illinois, in our nation, and around the world. Our alumni network is growing, demonstrating compassionate intellect and creative energy in the communities they serve.
