Graduate School

Welcome to the MSU Graduate School website.

Minot State University proudly offers eleven graduate programs, including one specialist degree, nine master's degrees, and one graduate certificate. Additionally, MSU offers a Ph.D. in Criminal Justice jointly with the University of North Dakota.

All students attending MSU, regardless of their residency, pay North Dakota in-state tuition and fees for campus classes. Tuition for online and off-site classes is the same as for classes on campus; fees vary slightly.

Course delivery is designed to meet the needs of both full-time and part-time students.

NEW Nominations for Graduate School Citation for Excellence are due March 15, 2010.
