Freshwater research center of the University of Wisconsin System
Great Lakes WATER Institute (also known as the WATER Institute, Wisconsin Aquatic Technology and Environmental Research Institute, GLWI) is a freshwater research center of the University of Wisconsin System[1] administered by the Graduate School of University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee.[2][3]
Located on Milwaukee's inner harbor, it is the only major aquatic research institution located on Lake Michigan and the largest of its kind in the Great Lakes region.[4][5][6]
The WATER Institute is both a UW-Milwaukee Center of Excellence and a UW System Regents Center of Excellence.[2] It became the main component of UW-Milwaukee School of Freshwater Sciences in 2009 with the goal of turning Milwaukee into a world freshwater research hub.[7][8]
