Message from Executive Director

Welcome to the University of Nebraska’s Peter Kiewit Institute!

This website is intended to give you a glimpse at one of the most innovative and truly "state-of-the-art" Information Technology and Engineering programs in the nation.

By drawing from two Colleges on two campuses with close ties to business and industry, opportunities for both undergraduate and graduate students are simply second to none. From internships, to mentors, to networking opportunities with CEOs in some of the nation’s leading firms … students find a personal approach that’s both stimulating and challenging. There are even entrepreneurial research grants available so student ideas have a chance to blossom in preparation for the market place.

With a wide array of scholarships, a state-of-the-art residence hall and conference center, as well as unique opportunities for both academic and career exploration, it’s no wonder, enrollments are up more than 80% in just over three years and successful recruitment of "best and brightest" continues to grow at unprecedented rates.

Want to know more? Go ahead, check out the website. Better yet, give us a call (402-554-3333) or come for a visit. You’ll be delighted with what we have to offer!
