<p><span lang="NO-BOK" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Cambria","serif";mso-fareast-language:NO-BOK">On Oct. 11, 2012 U.S. Strategic Command (STRATCOM) announced a partnership with the Nebraska University system to form a University-Affiliated Research
Center (UARC). This research and development institute will use faculty from all campuses to work within their strong fields, and contribute work toward national security functions. This new center will have long lasting benefits to the NU system, including
UNO. The initial research funding has a ceiling maximum of $84 million over the next 5 years, and the expectation is that funding and research will only expand as the program takes root. At UNO, where STRATCOM has been a long-time partner, computer security
and technology will play a large role. The main research fields listed included nuclear, chemical, and biological detection, passive defense against weapons of mass destruction, and consequence management. Other fields include space, cyber, and telecommunications
law.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

a forward-thinking, comprehensive doctoral/research metropolitan university. UNO offers nearly 200 programs of study in a broad range of academic majors from baccalaureate through doctoral degrees, and its online Bachelor of General Studies degree was recently
ranked 11th in the nation. The faculty represent the very best in their fields, earning national teaching awards, securing federal research funding, and advancing the horizons of knowledge in their fields of interest. With approximately 12,600 undergraduate
and 2,800 graduate students, UNO is well on its way to accomplishing its goal of reaching 20,000 students by the year 2020. The university currently has ties with 72 universities 50in 42 countries across 5 continents. More than 1700 international students
