The Chancellor serves as the chief administrative officer at UW-Eau Claire. The administrative functions that the Chancellor oversees are divided into two areas and an administrator heads each area. Academic Affairs is headed by the provost and vice chancellor. Business and Student Services is headed by a second vice chancellor.
UW-Eau Claire is divided into three colleges: 1) the College of Arts and Sciences, 2) the College of
Business, and 3) the College of Professional Studies. The Schools of Education, Human Sciences and
Services, and Nursing make up the College of Professional Studies. Each college is headed by a college dean whose office is responsible for reviewing and approving students’ plans for degrees.
Each of the three colleges is divided into departments. Each department is headed by a department chair who is responsible for assigning faculty advisors to students who elect a major in the department and for monitoring the academic progress of all students with majors in the department.
There are other offices that assist students at UW-Eau Claire. The Admissions Office admits students to the university. Academic and Career Services assists students with academic planning, degree completion, career development, placement, and personal counseling. The Office of Records and
Registration maintains records on each student’s enrollment and academic achievement. The Office of the Dean of Students provides supportive services to student activities, student government, and student organizations.

The University of Wisconsin System provides and maintains adequate facilities for a safe and healthy learning environment. It is the University’s responsibility to work with faculty and staff so that they are equipped to educate their students on practices and procedures that ensure safety for all members of the University. Employees with instructional responsibilities are expected to comply with state and federal safety laws and regulations in their institutional areas. Certain courses and research projects require that the students work with hazardous materials while engaging in academic studies. Instructors of these courses and research projects shall inform and train students on procedures that will maintain the students’ personal health and safety and provide them with information on the hazards of specific chemicals that will be used during their course of study. Furthermore, instructors will enforce and follow safety policies. Prior to use of hazardous materials and equipment, the students shall review the procedures and information, and discuss any associated concerns with the instructor.
