The College of Letters & Science is the heart of UW–Madison. The largest college in the university, we enroll over half of all UW–Madison students. We also provide the foundation courses in science, math, languages, and literature for all undergraduate
programs across campus. Our 21,000 students, 3,000 faculty and staff, and 170,000 living alumni form a tradition of liberal arts excellence and achievement that dates back over 100 years.

Letters & Science also is UW–Madison’s focal point of research in disciplines from arts and humanities to social, mathematical, natural, and physical sciences. Our college administers the third highest amount of competitive research grants on campus, and contributes a significant portion
of the grants administered through the Graduate
School. Our research translates into service to the people of Wisconsin, hands-on research opportunities for undergraduates, top tier graduate training programs, and news-making discoveries by faculty, staff, and students.

Letters & Science is where a UW–Madison education begins and matures; where ambitions and goals are shaped; and where critical thinkers are challenged and future leaders are trained. To ensure that our students emerge from the college with the knowledge, skills, and experiences they will need to
thrive in the global workplace and community, we have established two priorities for the coming years:

To strengthen undergraduate education inside and outside the classroom, and increasing scholarship support so that all students can take advantage of these opportunities.

To build on our research pre-eminence by protecting our status as one of the world’s leading research universities and the college’s role as the UW–Madison’s largest research unit. We can accomplish this by recruiting and retaining top faculty in all fields and by exposing students to these leading scholars, so that students experience first-hand how knowledge is created.

We welcome all alumni and friends as partners
in our endeavors. Such partnerships have
been a vital element of the excellence that we
have achieved more than a century as a college.
Continued partnership and support will
help us achieve ambitious goals and create a
promising future for the next generations.
