Cultural Immersion
A hallmark of a UWEC education is that Blugolds push their own boundaries in seeking knowledge and understanding.
Luckily, finding ways to break out of that comfort zone and discover something new are not hard to come by on this campus. And one of the many ways you can explore the world around you with fresh eyes is through our robust and year-round selection of immersion programs.
In fact, this university believes so strongly in the value of these intercultural experiences, every full-time tuition-paying undergraduate UW-Eau Claire student is automatically eligible to receive funding to participate in one international, domestic, or research-based immersion experience.

The way you learn during immersion experiences has a lot of advantages. Immersive learning allowed me work in the mud, move rocks, and clean fishponds, listening to the locals talk. It makes everything I learned about the land and people feel more real and touching.
