Higher Education in Illinois Colleges

The most populous state in the Midwest and fifth most populous in the nation, Illinois boasts a vast network of rural areas, small towns, and large urban networks. Its location makes it a natural transportation hub - connecting the eastern and western halves of the United States. Chicago is the state's largest city and lays claim to being one of the largest in the nation. An ideal setting for Illinois colleges, the northeastern part of the state is a mecca for business, culture, and industry.

Chicago's popularity largely drives the economic outlook of the state. Aurora, Rockford, and Naperville round out the top four. Major businesses include the University of Illinois, Abbott Laboratories, Allstate Corporation, and State Farm Mutual Insurance Corporation. The state's job forecast suggests that careers in hot demand for those graduating from IL colleges are likely to be in network and data communications, mental health, and occupational therapy.
