Innovation’s new address is just 90 minutes away—at UW-Eau Claire.
On our stunning riverside campus, game-changing opportunities and a culture of student-lead innovation mean something once-in-a-lifetime is happening every single day.
We offer tuition reciprocity for Minnesota students. That means you can attend the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire for about the same price you’d pay at a Minnesota State University System institution.
Stack up experiences, not just library books. Nearly 90% of Blugolds have at least 2 high-impact learning opportunities — like research, an internship, cultural immersion, or community-engaged learning — before they graduate.
Minneapolis residents are just a short, 90-minute drive from campus. But while you're in Eau Claire, you'll still have all the amenities you need — a thriving music scene, 380+ restaurants, 8 just-off-campus coffee shops, and 264 miles of bike trails with stunning river views.
Experience Blugold life for yourself
Join a student-led campus tour to check out UWEC’s academic buildings, cozy residence halls, and popular student spaces. You’ll find friendly faces and natural beauty everywhere you look.

The biggest surprise for me was the connection between the university and the city. I always had this idea that there would be a line in the sand between student and university events, and the city and community space. The university and community are very intertwined.
