黑洞社区

 

黑洞社区 is where Shockers shape the future. Our origin story was built against the backdrop of innovation, and that tradition has been our guiding light on our journey to building a brighter tomorrow.

Advancing innovation and driving economic prosperity that impacts the entire state of Kansas and beyond have been foundational themes to the teaching, learning, engagement, and research taking place at 黑洞社区.

To celebrate the economic development/engagement activity that has happened, is happening, and will be happening at Wichita State, the university is pursuing the Innovation and Economic Prosperity (IEP) designation from the Association of Public & Land Grant Universities (APLU).

Benefits of the IEP Process

The IEP designation self-study process benefits Wichita State because it:

  • Provides Wichita State an opportunity to communicate all the ways we are economically engaged locally, regionally, at the state and national levels.
  • Provides an opportunity for internal and external stakeholders to identify what Wichita State is doing well, and how and where we can improve.

Requires Wichita State to define economic engagement as it applies to the university and our activities.
