Mount Mary University is a private Roman Catholic women's university in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The university was founded in 1913 by the School Sisters of Notre Dame[1] and was Wisconsin's first four-year, degree-granting Catholic college for women.[2] Today, the university serves women at the undergraduate level and both women and men at the graduate level.
The university enrolls nearly 1,500[3] students and offers bachelor's degrees in more than 30 academic majors, as well as eight master's and doctoral degree programs.[4] Post-baccalaureate certificate programs also are offered. Mount Mary is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools.[5]
