English PhD

I came from China and I chose to study at UWM because of its strong program in English literature.  I like the academic community here.  Also, most of the professors are very friendly and supportive.  If you are interested in pursuing advanced degrees in English, I think you should definitely check into UWM.  It has great resources!

English PhD

My five years at UWM were indeed invaluable. People here, professors, staff, and graduate and undergraduate students, are willing to help you to achieve your goals. Opportunities open up when you live up to the challenge here. The studen t body is quite diverse; the international community consists of well-balanced populations. You will learn about the rest of the world as well as America. The city is urban enough to provide you with various cultural experiences and diversions, but Milwau kee does not stress you out as New York or Chicago does—it is an ideal environment for college and graduate students to pursue their goals and enjoy their lives at the same time.  The international student services have been improving. The whol e campus has been undergoing major renovation to facilitate your studies here.  I believe it is not only my diploma from UWM but all of my life experiences in Milwaukee that brought me the job I have today.

UWM has been a source of opportunities that have not only helped me become a better person but also have made me become a better thinker.  While working as a consultant and then as supervisor for the Student Technology Services, I have learned new skills and at the same time have been able to apply them. As a graduate student in the School of Allied Health Professions, I learned so much that I wish to learn even more …Thank you UWM!

Since I was accepted to be the student here, I really enjoy it. I have gotten many great experiences from American and foreign friends, professors, and UWM. Even I have to stay far away from my country but UWM make me feel like my home.
