中文介绍
现在的爱荷华州立大学最初是由州立法机构于1858年设立的,是一所农业学院和示范农场。第二年以将近5400美元的价格购买了土地。这座农舍建筑(现在是一座据说闹鬼的博物馆)于1861年竣工
1969年,第一批正式的学生来到这里。该机构从一开始就是男女同校,1872年首批26名毕业生中有两名女性。现在,它已经从如此卑微的出身发展到在任何时候都能容纳大约27000名学生
爱荷华农业学院(1898年成为爱荷华州立农业和机械艺术学院)建立在一所赠地大学的原则之上,该大学强调无障碍教育和文科教学以及更直接的实用科目。这些创始理想仍然反映在100多个专业中,这些专业从农业延伸到大多数科学和艺术领域
1879年,爱荷华州立大学成立了美国第一所州立兽医学院,成为先驱。1949年,该校获得了现在的名称,爱荷华州立科技大学,以反映其卓越的研究和对技术创新的高度关注。校园里发生的著名发明包括世界上第一台二进制计算机Atanasoff–Berry计算机(或ABC)
ISU的知名校友包括第一位黑人学生(后来也是第一位黑人教员),前奴隶乔治·华盛顿·卡弗,他后来成为著名的植物学家和发明家;和宇航员克莱顿·安德森
英文介绍
What is now Iowa State University was originally set up by the state legislature as an agricultural college and model farm in 1858. Land was purchased for close to $5,400 the following year. The farmhouse building (now a museum that is said to be haunted) was completed in 1861.
The first official student cohort arrived in 1969. The institution was co-educational from the start, with two women among the first 26 graduates in 1872. It has now grown from such humble origins to cater to about 27,000 students at any one time.
Iowa Agricultural College (which became Iowa State College of Agricultural and Mechanic Arts as of 1898), was established on the principles of a land grant university, which stress accessibility and the teaching of the liberal arts alongside more immediately practical subjects. These founding ideals are still reflected in a range of more than 100 majors branching out from agriculture to cover most of the sciences and the arts.
Iowa State was already a pioneer in 1879, when it set up the first state school of veterinary medicine in the US. It acquired its current title, Iowa State University of Science and Technology, in 1949 to reflect its excellence in research and strong focus on technological innovation. Notable inventions that took place on campus include the Atanasoff–Berry computer (or ABC), the world’s first binary computer.
Among the well-known alumni of ISU are its first black student (and later its first black faculty member), former slave George Washington Carver, who went on to become a prominent botanist and inventor; and astronaut Clayton Anderson.
