📚 University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) | 伊利诺伊大学香槟分校
The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) is the flagship campus of the University of Illinois System and one of the largest, most productive public research universities in the United States. Since its founding in 1867, it has combined a land-grant mission of practical education with world-class scientific research, earning a reputation that stretches far beyond the Midwestern prairie where it stands.
伊利诺伊大学香槟分校（University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign，简称 UIUC）是伊利诺伊大学系统的旗舰校区，也是美国规模最大、科研产出最高的公立研究型大学之一。自 1867 年建校以来，它把赠地大学"服务实际、面向大众"的教育使命与顶尖的科学研究结合在一起，声誉早已远超它所在的美国中西部草原。
1. Overview and Institutional Identity | 学校概况与身份定位
UIUC is a public land-grant university, a member of the Big Ten Conference since 1896, and the oldest and largest of the three campuses in the University of Illinois System. It enrols more than 56,000 students, including roughly 35,000 undergraduates, drawn from all fifty US states and over 100 countries.
UIUC 是一所公立赠地大学，自 1896 年起就是十大联盟（Big Ten）成员，也是伊利诺伊大学系统三校区中历史最悠久、规模最大的一个。全校在校生超过 56,000 人，其中本科生约 35,000 人，生源覆盖美国 50 个州和 100 多个国家。
Its motto, "Learning and Labor", sums up the ethos of the campus: knowledge is meant to be applied. That practical orientation explains why UIUC is equally famous for engineering laboratories, agricultural experiment plots and business case competitions.
校训 "Learning and Labor"（学习与劳动）凝练了这所校园的精神内核：知识必须能被使用。也正因这种务实取向，UIUC 的工程学院实验室、农业试验田和商学院案例竞赛同样出名。
2. Location and Campus Setting | 地理位置与校园环境
The campus occupies about 1,783 acres spread across the twin cities of Urbana and Champaign in east-central Illinois. It lies roughly 200 km south of Chicago, about two and a half hours away by car or by Amtrak train, and the university even has its own airport, Willard Airport, a few minutes from the main quad.
校园占地约 1,783 英亩，横跨伊利诺伊州中东部的厄巴纳（Urbana）与香槟（Champaign）双子城。校区距芝加哥约 200 公里，开车或乘 Amtrak 火车约两个半小时；学校甚至拥有自己的威拉德机场（Willard Airport），距主广场只有几分钟车程。
Landmarks include the Main Quad, Foellinger Auditorium, Altgeld Hall, the Alma Mater statue, the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts, Japan House and its arboretum, and the Morrow Plots - the oldest continuously used experimental crop plot in the United States, established in 1876. Around the campus, corn and soybean fields stretch to the horizon, a reminder of the university's agricultural roots.
校内标志性建筑包括主广场（Main Quad）、Foellinger 礼堂、Altgeld Hall、Alma Mater 雕像、Krannert 表演艺术中心、日本屋（Japan House）及其植物园，以及 Morrow Plots——美国持续使用时间最长的实验农田，建于 1876 年。校园四周是延伸到地平线的玉米与大豆田，时刻提醒人们这所大学的农业渊源。
3. History since 1867 | 建校历史与发展脉络
UIUC was chartered in 1867 as Illinois Industrial University under the Morrill Land-Grant Act of 1862, which gave federal land to states for the purpose of teaching agriculture and the mechanical arts. It opened in 1868 with a small first class, was renamed the University of Illinois in 1885, and took its present name after the Chicago campus separated in 1982.
UIUC 于 1867 年依据 1862 年《莫里尔赠地法案》获得特许状，初名伊利诺伊工业大学（Illinois Industrial University），该法案以联邦土地资助各州教授农业与机械技术。学校 1868 年正式开学，首届学生人数很少；1885 年更名为伊利诺伊大学；1982 年芝加哥校区独立之后，才定名为今天的"伊利诺伊大学香槟分校"。
Early strengths in agriculture and engineering set the pattern for the next century, and the university built one of the first university-owned electronic computers, ILLIAC I, in 1952. Its century-and-a-half of continuous growth has made it a standing reference point for American public higher education.
早期在农业与工程学上的优势奠定了此后一个世纪的发展格局，学校还在 1952 年建成最早的大学自有电子计算机之一 ILLIAC I。一百五十余年的持续发展，使它成为美国公立高等教育的重要参照系。
