Reorganization of Undergraduate Program Office

As a result of reorganization of core functions of the undergraduate program, the name of the Undergraduate Programs Office has been changed to Undergraduate Academic Services (UAS). Undergraduate Academic Services is located in Suite 2020 Grainger Hall, space formerly used by the Weinert Center for Entrepreneurship.

The core functions of Undergraduate Academic Services are:

• Academic advising and related programming (prospects, applicants, and admitted business students) for approximately 4,500 UW-Madison students
• Admission information, process, systems and related statistics
• Administration of undergraduate academic affairs
• Graduation information, process, systems and related statistics
• International Study Programs – study abroad programming
• Business Learning Center – academic support programming

Some school-wide functions and other undergraduate activities have migrated to other offices:

• Timetable management (and related room issues) is being handled by the Dean’s Office – Marjorie Pfeifer, mapfeife@wisc.edu, is managing this process until an assistant director for academic support services is hired. The search is in process.
• Room reservations for meetings and events, and class sessions that are supplemental to the timetable schedule, are being handled by Conference Services.
• Student organizations and leadership education are being handled by the Accenture Leadership Center as part of the Business Career Center.
