Language Fair
College of Arts and Sciences
High school students from across the state studying Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Japanese, Russian, and Spanish have the opportunity to demonstrate the acquisition of language and cultural knowledge in competitive events. Students may participate in one competitive event (individual or group), PLUS either a poster OR a short film. For example, an acceptable combination would be drama + poster or poetry + film.
Public Policy Center
The Public Policy Center is a university-wide, multidisciplinary research and outreach unit committed to addressing complex issues by linking academic research, stakeholder perspectives, and practical experience through innovative and creative solutions. Our mission is to link policy with research, process, and practice by working with researchers, policymakers, and stakeholders to actively inform public policy.
Yeutter Institute of International Trade and Finance
Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources
At the Clayton Yeutter Institute of International Trade and Finance, we connect academic disciplines related to law, policy, business and agriculture to prepare students for leadership roles in international trade and finance, support interdisciplinary research and increase public understanding of these issues. Named for the renowned trade expert Clayton Yeutter—a Nebraska alumnus and former U.S. Trade Representative and Agriculture Secretary—the Yeutter Institute is a community focused on understanding and adapting to our global world.
