When Wichita State first opened its doors in 1895, students rode horses to class, telegraph machines were cutting-edge technology and Wichita had only been a city for roughly 25 years.

Today, the university continues its evolution through collaboration, innovation, applied learning and entrepreneurship, creating the ideal environment for students, industry and community to work together and build a bright future for its city, region and world.
