The Hawkeye Life Program

Providing Student-Athletes with a Game Plan for Life

At the University of Iowa, we are committed to providing student-athletes with tools for success in the classroom, but we also are dedicated to preparing them for their paths in life. One way to help our student-athletes develop and grow, personally and professionally, is through the Hawkeye Life Program.

The Hawkeye Life Program is an all-encompassing life skills student development model that enhances the student-athlete experience and helps today's Hawkeyes engage in the world around them. The program has six pillars:

  • Academic success
  • Mid-American Energy Community Engagement
  • Diversity and inclusion
  • Health and well-being
  • Leadership
  • Career development

Many funding opportunities are available within the Hawkeye Life program. Please contact Sloane Tyler (sloane.tyler@foriowa.org), or one of our athletic development officers at 319-467-3410 for more information.
