Involvement and innovation typify a way of life for more than 8,000 students attending University of Wisconsin-Stout. Since its founding in 1891, students from around the world have been drawn to the UW-Stout campus by an outstanding curriculum, a faculty with a record of concerned service to students, and facilities that are among the finest anywhere. Founded as an experiment in education, UW-Stout attracted national attention from the beginning.

Traditionally, UW-Stout's programs have prepared students for productive careers in business, industry, technology, education, human development, and art and design. A combination of course work in the humanities, social and natural sciences, as well as work in career fields, is a key part of an educational plan that produces graduates who live, think and work creatively.

The success of UW-Stout's approach to education can be measured by the growth of the University and its high employment record. Because of enrollment pressures, prospective students are encouraged to apply for admission early in the school year.

To those who know it well, the UW-Stout campus is a place of beauty, history and character. It is a place to learn and grow -- to gain an appreciation and respect for the past and a new perspective for the future. It's a place that will encourage you to identify your needs and the needs of society and to meet them.
