Martin Luther College is the college of ministry affiliated with the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS). Located on a 50 acre (200,000 m²) campus in New Ulm, Minnesota, the college prepares men for pastoral training at Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary and men and women for service as early childhood teachers, elementary, and secondary teachers and staff ministers in WELS churches, schools and missions. Martin Luther College was established in 1995 when Northwestern College, located in Watertown, WI, and Dr. Martin Luther College in New Ulm amalgamated on the New Ulm campus. In 1892, when the Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Michigan Synods formed a federation called the Evangelical Lutheran Joint Synod of Wisconsin and Other States, it was agreed that Northwestern College would become the primary college for training men to serve as pastors in the new synod’s churches. It was also agreed that Dr. Martin Luther College would discontinue its pastor training course and would become a teacher training college.
