Located near the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) and home for the Center for Advanced Energy Studies (CAES), U of I Idaho Falls is a premier graduate, research and development center.

The University of Idaho began offering classes in Idaho Falls in 1954, supporting the U.S. Department of Energy's national laboratory activities. The program evolved to meet the educational needs of the INL and has since awarded more than 1,200 advanced degrees.
