Weber State University

History

WSU was founded in Ogden, Utah as Weber Stake Academy in 1889. “Weber” comes from the name of the county where the university is located, which was named after John Henry Weber, an early American fur trapper.

Education

Weber State has more than 100 undergraduate majors and areas of emphasis that lead to associate’s or bachelor’s degrees.

Research

The mission of the Weber State University Sustainability Practices and Research Center is to inform and educate WSU students, faculty, staff and the local and statewide community in order to ensure the sustainability of our region and our world for future generations.

Career

The mission of Career Services is to help students develop their self-awareness and skills to explore, clarify and implement good career choices and promote strategies to locate meaningful employment upon graduation.

Housing services

Accommodations for students and parents are available at the beautiful, air-conditioned Wildcat Village. The basic set up of these rooms are single- and double-room apartments with a bathroom, a common living area and kitchen. Parents can stay in the same suite as their children upon request.

WSUSA acknowledges dissimilar opinions by attempting to achieve a broad-based representation. WSUSA provides and supports programming and activities designed to involve and enrich the student body.
