UW COLLEGE CONNECTION

SOIS is currently part of the UWM College Connection, an innovative program that allows students at participating UW College Campuses to earn a UWM bachelor's degree while remaining at a campus near their home. BSIR courses are currently being offered at UW–College campuses via the Internet. The IR program has been established to complement students’ already existing degrees from the two-year colleges. By completing a General Education Requirement (GER) Associate’s Degree at any of these universities, a student only needs an additional two years of coursework, full-time, to complete a baccalaureate degree from UW-Milwaukee. For more information about the college connection, call our undergraduate advisor at: (414) 229-4707 or e-mailing info@sois.uwm.edu.
