Colleges

While each of UW-Eau Claire’s four colleges offer different programs, all are home to talented and dedicated faculty committed to your success. Here, you can find your place with the support to achieve your academic goals. 

Your major will "live" in one college, but by the time you complete your Blugold degree, there is a good chance you will have taken classes in all four. That's the beauty of a liberal arts university — we help you discover the diverse topics that will both strengthen your degree and meet your curiosity over the next four years.
