MSU's Next Strategic Plan

Welcome! Minot State is updating its strategic plan.
A Strategic Planning Committee has been meeting since fall semester 2025, and they need your feedback to continue.
- If you are a member of the Minot State faculty or staff or are a student, please complete the seven-question Campus Survey.
- If you are a member of the broader community (alumni, member of the Minot region, employer, parent of an MSU student, etc.), please complete the three-question Community Survey.
Both surveys are brief but important for gathering input from all those invested in Minot State University and its continued success.
To see Minot State's accomplishments on its 2022-2025 strategic plan, visit our Empowering Generations site and view the Progress Reports page.
