Program areas at Carroll University

Instruction & academic support - services provided to support students in the classroom and support of classroom. Carroll University offers more than 95 areas of study for students to discover and explore that are housed within two colleges (college of arts and sciences and college of health sciences) and two schools (school of business and school of education and human services). We structure those with the individual goals and needs of our students in mind. Our top majors are nursing, business, exercise science, psychology, biology and physical therapy (graduate). Many of our programs offer the flexibility to double major or add minors while still graduating in four years. We also offer the opportunity to complete select majors and get started on a career sooner with our carroll3 programs. In addition, our dual degree programs make it convenient for students to earn both a bachelor's and master's degree in just five years. Carroll isn't a one-size-fits-all kind of place and recognizes that everyone is different and we're here to help each student get the most out of their academic experience. In each of our areas of study, students will gain a strong, foundational knowledge and skills that will prepare them for their future. They will enjoy small class sizes and professors who get to know them and are invested in student success. At the graduate level, Carroll offers students looking to take their expertise to the next level with accelerated, flexible programs that help them go farther, faster to reach their professional goals.
Institutional support - this category of programming includes the senior leadership team, marketing and communications, and all other necessary functions to lead and support the University's students and academic mission at the waukesha, Wisconsin campus and other facilities made up of 1.3 million square feet of space in over 65 buildings and 160-plus acres of land. Also included here is institutional advancement which is focused on fundraising and donor relations and the alumni relations department reaching out to more than 23,000 Carroll alumni across all 50 states and 33 countries. All other services that support the administrative functions of the institution are included here including depreciation, depletion and amortization.
Auxiliary & student services - services provided to students not related to the classroom such as dormitory charges and board plans and services to students that are related to activities outside the classroom such as athletics, financial aid and admission. The University offers a broad scope of activities and programming for students. Through intercultural programming, diversity initiatives, mentoring opportunities and more, our office of intercultural and diversity engagement works to challenge preconceived notions and enrich the Carroll community. Students live out Carroll's mission of service through volunteering, mentorship programs, civic engagement and more. Campus spiritual life includes weekly programs, retreats and partnerships with local faith communities that give students many options for reflection and worship. Other student activities at Carroll include more than 50 student organizations where students can join together to explore their interests and develop leadership skills in organizations related to academic programs, service/advocacy, diversity, student government, recreation, acting, fraternity and sorority life, acapella singing, outdoor activities and more. Carroll is home to 23 ncaa division iii athletic teams (11 men's sports and 12 women's sports) and competes in the nationally-recognized college conference of Illinois and Wisconsin (cciw). Included in auxiliary programming are 12 housing options from traditional residence halls to suite-style units and apartments and also flexible meal plans and menus are offered for all of our seven on-campus dining locations.
