The academic culture here is highly research-oriented, meaning students get lots of hands-on experience in their fields.

The most beloved and highly esteemed sports teams at UWM are The Badgers, one for football and the other for basketball. The games are always filled with excitement and cheer from UWM students. Of course, be sure not to miss out on the soccer games, either. They’re just as fun to watch (for free!)

If you like a place, then it’s likely that 5 other people will too.
