About this event

Community • Other

The Institute for Advanced Learning and Research is a catalyst for regional economic transformation. But what does that actually mean? And how do we accomplish this mission?

Join us for a free guided group tour of IALR’s campus to learn more about our impact, see our innovative programs and cutting-edge research, and experience our state-of-the-art facilities.

This one-hour tour will include an overview of what we do and a closer look into our five divisions: Advanced Learning, Applied Research, Manufacturing Advancement, Economic Development, and Institute Conference Center. We will see controlled environment agriculture, robotics and automation, unique workforce development programs, top-tier conferencing facilities, and much more!

This tour is open to 10 participants, each of whom will receive:

  • An engaging tour of IALR’s facilities, including research labs, workforce development programs, advanced manufacturing initiatives, and more!
  • A “swag” bag with IALR-branded gear.
  • A coupon for a free cookie with the purchase of a meal from Megabytes, IALR’s on-site cafe.
