The U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the National Security Agency have designated EWU as a National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense (NCAE-C) — the only four-year institution in eastern Washington to earn this classification.

EWU has the only undergraduate industrial robotics and automation program in our three-state area. Students get hands-on training with 10 industrial robots. These innovative opportunities make EWU a driving force in the economic vitality of the Inland Northwest.

To address a critical healthcare need, EWU launched a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program in fall 2023. After two consecutive 40-student cohorts, the program will welcome its third cohort in fall 2025.

Eagles really do soar high. In Spring 2024, EWU partnered with Fairchild Air Force Base, where C-STEM students are gaining hands-on experience by assisting with a wide range of projects dealing with engineering, design, and beyond.

EWU’s Prairie Restoration Project is restoring 100+ acres of farmland to its original prairie condition, creating a “living laboratory” for research, education and recreation.
