Boise State University
Boise State University, founded in 1932, has grown from a small junior college into Idaho's largest university, and its football program's distinctive blue artificial turf field, installed in 1986, made Boise State's home stadium one of the most recognizable in college football. The university's engineering and computer science programs have grown substantially alongside Boise's emergence as a significant regional technology hub, drawing on the city's growing concentration of technology employers relocating to the area. Boise State's 2007 Fiesta Bowl upset victory over Oklahoma, capped by a trick-play touchdown in overtime, remains one of the most celebrated upsets in college football history and significantly raised the university's national athletic and academic profile. The university's combination of its distinctive football brand identity and its growing technology-sector-connected academic programs has made Boise State one of the fastest-rising public universities in the Mountain West over the past two decades.
VS
Brigham Young University-Idaho
Brigham Young University-Idaho, established in its current four-year form in 2001 after decades as a two-year college, is owned and operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and follows an unusual year-round, three-semester academic calendar that lets the university serve significantly more students than its physical campus capacity would otherwise allow. The university's extremely low, church-subsidized tuition, combined with its explicit religious mission and honor code requiring students to follow specific moral and dress standards, gives BYU-Idaho an institutional identity closely mirroring its larger sister campus in Provo, Utah. BYU-Idaho's rapid enrollment growth since its 2001 conversion to a four-year university has made it one of the largest private universities in the country by enrollment, reflecting strong demand within the LDS community for its distinctive combination of low cost and religious mission. The university's combination of its church ownership, its unusual year-round enrollment model maximizing campus capacity, and its rapid growth has made BYU-Idaho one of the most distinctive and fastest-growing religious universities in the country.
