Welcome to LPO

Welcome to the Language Program Office (or LPO for short) at the University of Wisconsin – Madison. Founded in 2020, the LPO strives to engage with, support, and foster further development of Less Commonly Taught Languages (LCTLs) through teaching, learning, and research both at UW and beyond. Whatever your interests, the Language Program Office is here to support you through your language learning journey. We’re excited you’re here!
