Are you a family member of an ISU student looking into options for off-campus living? This webinar will help prepare families to support their student in making this decision. You will hear from the Program Coordinator of Parent and Family Programs and Off-Campus Student Support as she offers insights into the Ames student rental market and highlights ISU offices and departments that can support students as they prepare to live off campus. Families will also hear reminders of important tenant rights and responsibilities and will be introduced to resources that will help students engage with their local community.

The webinar will take place on Thursday, October 29th at 12:00pm CT on Teams and will be recorded. The recording will be shared on the Parent and Family Programs website (https://parents.dso.iastate.edu/Webinars) within a week of the live event.

Come see it all! Visit with IE students, faculty, and staff at the Therkildsen Industrial Engineering Building Open House between 2 and 4pm on Saturday, October 24th. Learn about the growth areas of advanced manufacturing, human factors, and operations research and analytics.

The College of Engineering’s newest academic building opened in Fall 2025 and welcomed over 500 industrial engineering (IE) students this past August. Through the generosity of Turk and Joyce Therkildsen’s $42 million contribution (the largest donation for an ISU academic building in the school’s history), students have access to the Sukup Advanced Manufacturing Lab, where they learn automation applications including robots, vision systems, sensors, PLCs, and much more!

They also have an amazing Learning Community space, a team-based learning auditorium, computing labs, and a dedicated senior design capstone lab that supports millions of dollars of economic impact to the state of Iowa each year.
