What were the first degrees granted at Iowa State?
In 1872, the first graduating class of Cyclones completed their time at Iowa State with a bachelor of science degree — while some graduated with specific focuses like mechanic arts, agriculture, and general science. Several of the inaugural Iowa Staters had specialties within their areas of focus, like mechanic arts for architecture, mechanical engineering, and civil engineering. Now, in 2023, Iowa State offers a multitude of degree programs for the next generation of Iowa State groundbreakers.
