Going on college campus tours is the best way to know if a school is right for you. Our UNH campus tours are led by current students and showcase our beautiful campus, academic buildings, student life facilities and residence halls.
But there’s more to our campus! Follow along on our Campus Tour blog series to learn about unique and lesser-known parts of campus, including amazing laboratories, beautiful outdoor spaces and delicious dining locations. Today, we're featuring five campus locations you might not see on your UNH tour.
1. The InterOperability Laboratory
The UNH InterOperability Laboratory (IOL) is a technology testing lab that provides full-scale testing of the devices we use in our daily lives. UNH student interns work at the lab to gain experience and get a head start on their professional careers.
