UW-Superior is Wisconsin’s Public Liberal Arts College with a history of educational innovation dating to its founding in 1893. Today, UWS supports a wide variety of academic programs.

Alongside academics, we are committed to inclusive excellence; creating a space for all students regardless of background, economic status, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, ability, identity or spirituality to thrive and reach their fullest academic and personal potential. We are as focused on supporting our greater community as we are our students. Academic Service-Learning allows community-based learning embedded within a credit-bearing course, enhancing students' understanding of the course's learning objectives and of their sense of civic responsibility.Location Information
