Proud to welcome Bill Nye The Science Guy to UNLV for the Barrick Lecture Series!

(🎶Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill! 🎶)

To celebrate all things science at UNLV, UNLV Howard R. Hughes College of Engineering and UNLV College of Sciences dazzled the community with hands-on activities at “Science Under the Stars” before a watch party featuring Bill Nye's lecture and Q&A.

Students across disciplines at UNLV also had a special opportunity to learn the science of communications from Bill Nye himself during a pilot of the Barrick masterclass, a new series designed to give students the chance to learn directly from visiting speakers.

Extreme heat and water scarcity are part of life in Southern Nevada. At UNLV, they also shape how the we approach sustainability.

Our work in research, classroom projects, and campus operations has helped UNLV become one of 14 institutions to earn the new Carnegie Elective Classification for Sustainability 🍃

This six-year designation recognizes institutions that incorporate sustainability into curriculum and career preparation, research practices, business operations, and community engagement.

Each academic year, UNLV’s Disability Resource Center (DRC) staff work directly with around 2,000 students across roughly 4,000 courses – enabling them to receive the support they need for an equitable education.

“I think one of the biggest things I learned was that asking for support doesn’t mean that you’re not capable of succeeding,” says Emoniqueka “Emma” Campbell. “Sometimes you just need access to the right resources to give yourself the opportunity to perform at your best.”

When Gabriela Buccini first arrived at the UNLV School of Public Health, there was little data on maternal and child health that would help support her research in the area. Now, after 6 years of data collection with her team – totaling 2,686 families surveyed – she’s leading the charge in improving support for families across Nevada.

Public Health professor Gabriela Buccini and her team are studying the needs of mothers and children to help improve health outcomes for families.
