Make a positive impact on your community when you pursue your passion. Our students have developed new technologies on campus, spearheaded legislation at the Capitol across the street, promoted conservation at our Zena research forest, and transformed lives around the globe.

EXPERIENCE. GROW. EVOLVE.

The ability to adapt and tailor their teaching methods to the evolving needs of students has led Willamette faculty members to consistently earn awards for teaching excellence. Your professors will connect you to real-world learning experiences and help you seek out opportunities that are in line with your goals. It’s no wonder Willamette is home to more Oregon Professors of the Year than any other school.
