In the UW system there always is UW-Madison. I did my undergraduate there and came to UW-Milwaukee, there is definetly a difference. But it is not like the other UW schools that seem more like an upgraded tech school. UWM is a serious school, just not an A-Tier school like UW-Madison. My professors know what they are talking about and are very intense in passing that knowledge on. Some of the same books were used here and at UW-Madison. Madison just has more competetion, I always say it as at Madison, they are not afraid to flunk you because someone is always ready to take your place.

I saw one Milwaukee School of Engineering student's text book for "Heat Transfer" and almost laughed out loud. The book was more simple than my thermodynamics book at Madison. Milwaukee has a huge step up on the other UW schools(besides Madison) and MSOE.
