The University of Wisconsin–Manitowoc, part of the University of Wisconsin Colleges, is a two-year campus of the University of Wisconsin System located in Manitowoc, Wisconsin.
The University of Wisconsin System has had a presence in Manitowoc since 1933, when 26 students enrolled in a UW English class offered at a vocational school located downtown. The current campus, located on the south side of the city and on the shore of Lake Michigan, was opened in 1962. The campus has seen two major additions: Hillside Hall (originally named West Hall) was opened in 1986, Lakeside Hall was added in 2001. The original building is now named Founders Hall.
The UW-Manitowoc Blue Devils athletic teams compete in the East Division of the Wisconsin Collegiate Conference. The program offers intercollegiate athletic opportunities in co-ed golf, as well as men's and women's basketball, tennis, and volleyball.
As of 2006, enrollment is approximately 640 students, of which about one-third are part-time students. UW-Manitowoc has 42 faculty and instructional staff, as well as 32 administrative and support staff. The current Dean of the campus is Dr. Daniel S. Campagna.
