Houlne Center for Center for Convergent Technology named after Tim Houlne ’86 

A new building at Missouri Western State University to serve workforce development needs in the region will bear the name of a Missouri Western alumnus who supported the project with one of the largest donations in the University’s history. The building formerly known as the Convergent Technology Alliance Center (CTAC) will be known as the Houlne Center for Convergent Technology, in honor of Tim Houlne, an entrepreneur, author and visionary in the field of artificial intelligence. 

 

Email Reminder

Student’s email are a critical way we communicate with them. Please encourage your student to check their MWSU email and goldlink daily so they know what is going on around campus, any changes to schedules, financial aid news and more. As we head into a new academic year we want our students to be as prepared as possible and their email is essential in providing them with vital information.
