Description Located in Normal, Illinois with easy access to rail and air service, Normal doesn't quite describe it. Illinois State University (ISU) provides baccalaureate and post-graduate education courses and degrees in more than 180 academic fields, including business, fine arts, education, science, nursing, and technology. We boast a student body of more than 20,000 undergraduate and graduate students from 48 states and 6 continents. ISU's facilities include a fitness center, public planetarium, two laboratory schools, a social media listening center, the tallest residence hall in Illinois, and both a concert venue and art gallery. Founded in 1857 as Illinois State Normal University, the state's first public university today employs around 3500 full and part-time employees, not including students and graduate assistants, in teaching, research, technology, athletics and coaching, food service, facilities management, farm management, finance, technology, fundraising, and student affairs.
