Though the launch only lasted a few minutes, getting to the International Rocket Engineering Competition was a yearlong effort from Caleb and the rest of the @unl_rocketry team.

The minutes leading up to the actual launch were full of tweaks that put the team’s nerves into overdrive and called on everything they’d learned up until that point. But it was all worth it in the end — their perfect flight placed the team 7th out of 141 schools from around the world, a record high. For Caleb, not only was the successful competition gratifying, it also felt like a test run for his dream career.

“I'm a big space geek and I really want to work in space engineering, so being able to build a rocket as a team of students is super, super cool to me. When we’re at the actual launch site in Texas, you feel like you’re in your own mini mission control center. It makes you feel like this career is really possible.”

A throwback to an exciting milestone for the Nebraska entrepreneurship community.

In 2024, the Nebraska Center for Entrepreneurship and the University of Nebraska–Lincoln was ranked as a top 50 undergraduate entrepreneurship program for the first time, debuting at No. 42 on the list compiled by Princeton Review and Entrepreneur magazine. In 2025, the university moved up to No. 35 on the list.

Looking back on moments like this is a reminder of the students, faculty and staff, alumni and partners who continue building Nebraska’s entrepreneurial ecosystem and drive innovation across campus every day!

In college, Lena Lankas wanted to pursue her wide-ranging interests in business, computer science, entrepreneurship, and dance. At Nebraska, she has shown how her hometown university empowered her to excel across disciplines.

She earned degrees in business administration and computer science at the Jeffrey S. Raikes School of Computer Science and Management.

She graduates this week as a Chancellor’s Scholar with a perfect 4.0 GPA, as College of Business Student of the Year, a winner of several academic and entrepreneurship competitions across the university, launched a startup while still a student and performed at many notable Husker events as a Scarlet student-athlete.

“I'm really proud of how much I've accomplished at my hometown university. Sometimes there's a perception that you have to go elsewhere to find opportunity and excitement, but I proved that's not true."

After graduation, she will begin a full time role in product management at Hudl.

“When searching for colleges, it can sometimes feel like you have to settle for less in one area to get more in another,” she said. “However, those weren’t really tradeoffs I wanted to make, and I’ve been able to do so much at such a high level all at Nebraska.”
