Michigan Plateau (86°8′S 133°30′W / 86.133°S 133.500°W) is an undulating ice-covered plateau, 30 nautical miles (56 km) long, which rises to 3,000 metres (10,000 ft) at the western side of Reedy Glacier, Antarctica. The northern and eastern sides of the plateau are marked by the steep Watson Escarpment; the western and southern sides grade gradually to the elevation of the interior ice. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from ground surveys and U.S. Navy aerial photography, 1960–64, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names after the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, which has sent numerous research personnel to work in Antarctica.

Es erhebt sich bis zu 3000 m hoch an der Westflanke des Reedy-Gletschers. Die Nord- und Ostseite sind durch das steilwandige Watson Escarpment markiert. Die West- und Südflanke steigen bis auf das Niveau des zentralen Polarplateaus an. Kartografisch erfasst wurde das Gebiet durch den United States Geological Survey und durch Luftaufnahmen der United States Navy aus den Jahren 1960 bis 1964. Das Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names benannte es 1967 nach der University of Michigan, die zahlreiche Wissenschaftler für Forschungsarbeiten in Antarktika entsendet hatte. (de)
