School Details

Founded in 1866, UW-Platteville has been excelling in education for almost 150 years. In 1959 two early institutions of mining and education merged to become the Wisconsin State College and Institute of Technology at Platteville. After years of rapid growth, in 1966, the name was changed again to the Wisconsin State University-Platteville. The university and all other public institutions of higher education in Wisconsin merged in 1971 to form the UW System, governed by a single Board of Regents. As a result of the merger, the university experienced its most recent name change to the University of Wisconsin-Platteville. Today UW-Platteville seeks to be “A Smart Investment,” where students invest in themselves, design their career paths, and create exciting memories.
