University of Wisconsin - Madison

 

Founded in 1849 as a land grant institution, the University of Wisconsin-Madison is placed consistently among the top ten research universities in the country.

The Madison campus consists of 125 departments offering unusual breadth and expertise in nearly all academic disciplines. The life sciences are particularly well represented with prestigious programs in the field of agricultural, biological and medical sciences. Recently, a national poll of university professors ranked the biological sciences at Madison third best overall in the nation.

Interdepartmental and interschool cooperation among faculty and programs is especially prevalent at UW-Madison. This is particularly important to the graduate student who desires flexibility in the structuring of a graduate program.
