With 1300 graduate students, UW Oshkosh has the largest graduate program of the eleven comprehensive universities in the UW System.

The quality that makes our academic community distinct and that guides our strategic and operational planning is our commitment to engagement, collaboration and "Green" environmental principles. A feature that distinguishes an education at our university from others is the opportunity our students have to work directly with faculty on state-of-the-art research projects that benefit the community. A newspaper editorial entitled "UW-Oshkosh gaining national reputation for research, teaching" noted that "UW-O emphasizes researchers having classroom contact with students," and that "it has learned how to carve out niches of excellence knowing full well that those new branches of research earn it a reputation for innovation."
