Major at UW-Platteville: Software Engineering

What is your favorite thing about UW-Platteville? I like the countless opportunities available to pursue things that interest you. There is always a place to involve yourself in one way or another, and there are always chances to be creative and innovative with other people who share the same interests as you.

Why did you choose UW-Platteville? I chose UW-Platteville primarily because I was very interested in the Software Engineering major, but I also liked the small size of the campus because it provides a much more individualized experience and more of an opportunity to specialize and excel in something you like doing.
