Dean's Welcome

Students are what drive the University of Iowa. Our office is responsible for offering a variety of programs and services designed to assist and support students in achieving academic and personal success. We engage students and cultivate opportunities for academic and personal achievement through educationally-purposeful activities, service, recreation, and community building.

Efforts in student conduct are dedicated to encourage responsible community behavior, and provide a safe and fair environment. Our office is the University entity that works to resolve these matters

As part of the Hawkeye family, we support you as you excel academically, help you stretch to get the most from your college experience, and encourage engagement in positive student life and leadership. This is our collective challenge.
