Welcome to the economic development web page for the College of Engineering. On this site we are highlighting the myriad of ways the College is assisting the state of Iowa's economy through our economic development activities. Whether it is in technology transfer efforts, new company start-ups or our engineering extension efforts to Iowa manufacturers, we are engaging faculty, researchers, students and staff to partner with or assist Iowa business and industry to grow Iowa's economy.
