WELCOME TO UW-PARKSIDE RESERVATIONS!


OUR HISTORY
The University was an original outgrowth of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, which expanded its educational offerings to the southeastern Wisconsin region with the opening of the 4-year institution. In 1971, when the University of Wisconsin and the Wisconsin State Universities merged, UW-Parkside became part of the University of Wisconsin System. With 26 campuses around the state, the UW System is known around the world for educational excellence.

The University offers undergraduate study in 30 majors; graduate study in business administration, applied molecular biology and computer and information systems; and education certification in a range of specialties. As our curriculum and student population has grown, so has our commitment to the community. We serve as hosts for numerous events such as the Chiwaukee Prairie Academy, an annual Gerontology conference and the Super Camps Learning Forum.

THE CAMPUS
UW-Parkside is a striking complex of buildings interconnected by an indoor walkway. The buildings, constructed between 1967 and 1976 at a cost of more than $40 million, occupy a small portion of the 700-acre campus. Designed by Hellmuth, Obata Kassabaum of St. Louis in the late 1960's, the beautiful, low-profile design helps the campus complex blend in with its natural surroundings.

The campus has hundreds of acres of restored prairies, mature oak and maple forests and a meandering creek. The Wayne E. Dannehl National Cross Country Course that winds through the nature area hosts major running events each year.

Strategically located at the center of the corridor between Chicago and Milwaukee, the university boasts a unique atmosphere of combining urban, suburban and rural living. It is in close proximity to Interstate 94, therefore, providing easy access for our customers.

We invite you to consider the University of Wisconsin-Parkside for your next conference, summer camp, or special event where you will receive attention to detail and personal service. Call us to arrange a visit or inquire about specific date availability. We look forward to making your next event a success.
