Mission & Vision

Multicultural and International Student Support and Engagement (MISSE) is committed to supporting student success on the University of Iowa campus through planned activities through the five MISSE areas, annual diversity programs, and student organization events. There are over 100 multicultural student organizations at the University of Iowa that provide programming, service, educational programs, and cultural experiences to the campus community.

Within MISSE, the four UI Cultural Centers provide a "Home Away From Home" atmosphere for many students and can be utilized by any UI student or reserved for student organization events. The Centers also provide intra-and cross-cultural education, leadership and organizational development opportunities, social justice education, and change. The Centers compliment the academic mission of the University by enhancing students' inside and outside of the classroom.
