Letters & Science By The Numbers
Letters & Science Awards and Honors
The College of Letters & Science is central to academic excellence at UW-Madison. Constituting around half of the Madison campus, Letters & Science's 39 departments and 5 professional schools cover the spectrum of the humanities and arts, physical sciences and social sciences, in departments from African Languages and Literatures to Zoology. With over 50 interdisciplinary research centers, Letters & Science is uniquely positioned to confront the major issues of our times.
Among UW-Madison's 13 schools and colleges, only the College of Letters & Science touches every undergraduate student. Since most freshmen and sophomores take their courses in Letters & Science, we have the unique responsibility of launching UW undergraduates on their journey of intellectual discovery and lifelong learning.
Whether students decide to major in one of the Letters & Science disciplines, or pursue pre-professional studies in business, engineering, pre-medicine, education or other fields, Letters & Science educational and research programs in the physical sciences, math, foreign languages, and English are critical to their future success.
Letters & Science is proud of its outstanding teachers, whose influence on students continues for years after graduation.
Letters & Science is both a liberal arts college and a center of world-class research, from the freshman classroom to faculty projects. The college ranks third among UW-Madison colleges for research grant awards. Discoveries by the college's faculty, staff, and students make headlines on a regular basis.
