Welcome
The University of Wisconsin Oshkosh engages in collaborations and partnerships in the region and globally. Our commitment to engagement was most recently described as “absolutely shining” by the on-site evaluation team of the Higher Learning Commission, and our status as an innovative “green” campus has been recognized by the EPA and other national organizations. At the April meeting of the Board of Regents at UW Oshkosh, we will make some brief presentations on the theme of “Collaboration in Action: Building a Regional Model.”
We have greatly increased our degree program articulations, collaborative business entrepreneurship centers, graduation projects, and alternative licensure/certification programs for much-needed nurses and teachers through collaboration and partnership with NEW ERA (Northeastern Wisconsin Educational Resource Alliance), a consortium of executive leaders of northeast Wisconsin’s four technical colleges, five UW two-year colleges, two UW comprehensive universities, the College of Menominee Nation and UW Extension.
We help keep the region nationally and globally competitive through NEW ERA’s collaboration and partnership with New North, a consortium of northeastern Wisconsin’s Chambers of Commerce, Workforce Development Boards, economic development professionals and CEOs of major corporations.
UW Oshkosh is honored to host the Board of Regents meeting and to showcase how Northeast Wisconsin’s universities are building through collaboration a regional model: the New North, north of what you expect.
Sincerely,
Richard H. Wells
Chancellor
