Chancellor Kristin G. Esterberg
I’m pleased to welcome you to the University of Washington Bothell. Our mission is to provide access to an excellent UW education and ensure students have a dynamic, hands-on experience, filled with opportunity inside and outside the classroom.
We offer more than 50 undergraduate and graduate degree options — and pride ourselves on creating a small campus feel that is welcoming and inclusive to all.
I hope you join our diverse community of scholars and learners. Go Huskies!
