UW-Stevens Point: Northern Aquaculture Demonstration Facility - (715) 779-3461

Promoting sustainable aquaculture among the public, private and tribal sectors through technology transfer, applied research, demonstration and outreach

Our vision for the UWSP-Northern Aquaculture Demonstration Facility is a center that shall be recognized for promoting sustainable aquaculture among the public, private and tribal sectors through technology transfer, applied research, demonstration and outreach.

Wisconsin's highly diversified aquaculture industry has over 2,300 registered commercial fish farms, 14 state hatcheries, 2 federal hatcheries and all the resources needed to accommodate significant expansion. This facility will serve as an incubator for new aquaculture practices; providing students and faculty resources for the development of life-long learning.


The facility is the northern-most campus of the University of Wisconsin-Steven's Point. The University's College of Letters and Science directs the facility in collaboration with various partners based on projects and program goals. Some of our partners include:

-Wisconsin's Aquaculture Industry
