INVEST IN YOUR EXPERIENCE

Memorial Park offers more than 120 acres of restored prairies, an oak savanna, and stream. It is a true living laboratory that provides the backdrop for learning experiences outside of the classroom.

Sustainability is a major part of the UW-Platteville culture, and students play an active role in the stewardship of campus lands, helping to restore campus prairies, protect native pollinators, and conduct prescribed burns.

Our solar array not only makes us the sixth-highest on-site producer of renewable energy among universities nationwide, but also offers students unique learning opportunities—from assisting in the initial design to helping create land management plans.

Biology students research an emerging snake fungal disease that threatens a devastating impact on the region’s snake populations and ecosystem.
