MILITARY AND VETERANS RESOURCE CENTER (MAVRC)

Opened in November of 2012, MAVRC works to address the challenges faced by the military related student. The journey towards a resource center began as a collaborative effort between the Veterans Advisory Council to the Chancellor – comprised of UWM faculty and staff, several who were military veterans and the newly-formed Student Veterans of America, in partnership with campus leadership. Each group recognized the unique experiences service members bring to the UWM campus and Milwaukee community, as well as the potential barriers that impede the transition from the military into the civilian world.

MAVRC recognizes the need for support of spouses and children receiving military education benefits in navigating the the world of higher education and we work to advocate for this group as well.

As part of the Centers for Advocacy and Student Engagement, MAVRC works to support the UWM military related students while earning their college degree and completing successful transitions into the civilian workplace.
