 Welcome from Dr. Barhorst
Welcome to Madison Area Technical College and congratulations on your decision to pursue your education.
Whether you are here to build a foundation for a bachelor’s degree, explore a new career, introduce yourself to a new trade or hobby, or upgrade your skills for a job you already hold, you are integral to the community in which you work, learn and grow. MATC strives to provide accessible, high quality learning experiences that serve the community in a variety of ways. And you, the student, are the link between MATC and the community.
I hope you consider yourself a lifelong learner. Whether you are 18 or 85, your continuing professional development, technical training and personal education make you a thriving member of a stronger community.
While you are here, don’t forget to extend your learning beyond the classroom. As I like to say, learning can take place anywhere, anytime, anyhow. In addition to more than 140 programs, short-term certificates and adult continuing education courses, we provide a variety of opportunities for you to get involved in athletic, cultural and professional growth activities.
I like to make a point to meet as many students as possible; they remind me why my job is so important. I look forward to seeing you on campus!
Bettsey L. Barhorst, Ph.D.
President
