Office of the Chancellor

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!
