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 to ensure students have a dynamic, hands-on experience, filled with opportunity inside and outside the classroom.

We offer more than 55 undergraduate and graduate degrees — and pride ourselves on creating a small campus community feel that is welcoming and inclusive to all.

I hope you join our diverse community of scholars and learners. Go UW Bothell Huskies!
