Innovation + Impact
As one of the nation’s leading research institutions, the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign has been shaping the future since 1867. Our research enterprise drives student experiences and community engagement, powering innovation and positive change locally, nationally, and globally.
There is a line in the "About" section of the Humanities Research Institute website that neatly summarizes the Institute's role in orienting "humanities research, resources and influence toward new possibilities for the public university."
