Staff at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville congratulate the fall 2022 graduates of its distance education and master's degree programs. The fall 2022 commencement occurred on Dec. 17, 2022, with more than 560 candidates receiving their diplomas in three ceremonies. This included 21 master's degree candidates who received their master's hoods at their ceremony. UW-Platteville's distance education and graduate programs are fully online, with students from around the globe. In total, 61 students received their master's degree in fall 2022. Additionally, 16 undergraduate distance students earned their bachelor's degrees, and four more earned their associate degrees. In addition to the in-person ceremonies, the Office of Professional Program Support (OPPS) invited distance and graduate education graduates and their guests to a reception to celebrate with other graduates, faculty, and staff. OPPS, which administers and supports distance and graduate education for the university, hosts a reception each semester in honor of graduates who completed their degree through an online or master’s degree program. For many of these students, it is their first time visiting campus and meeting face-to-face with classmates, faculty, and staff. Congratulations, class of 2022!

UW-Platteville offers three associate degrees, seven bachelor's degrees, and ten master's degrees at a distance.
