Milwaukee School of Engineering is proud to announce that it has earned the prestigious 2026 USA TODAY Top Workplaces award. 

“This recognition belongs to our remarkable faculty and staff, whose passion, teamwork and commitment make MSOE an exceptional place to work,” said President Eric T. Baumgartner, Ph.D. “Being named a USA TODAY Top Workplace is a powerful celebration of the care our employees show for one another and for our students every day. Their hard work, engagement and shared dedication to our values are what continue to move MSOE forward.”

The award honors organizations with 150 or more employees that have created exceptional, people-first cultures. This year, more than 42,000 organizations were invited to participate. The winners are recognized for their commitment to fostering a workplace environment that values employee listening and engagement. USA TODAY showcased the winners online and at the National Awards Summit in Las Vegas.

The USA TODAY Top Workplaces Award is the second honor MSOE has received this year. In February, the university was recognized with the Top Workplaces for Higher Education award from Energage and The Princeton Review.

The winners are determined by authentic employee feedback captured through a confidential survey conducted by Energage, the HR research and technology company behind the Top Workplaces program since 2006. The results are calculated based on employee responses to statements about Workplace Experience Themes, which are proven indicators of high performance.
