Midwestern State University

Since its founding in 1922, Midwestern State University has grown from a local junior college to a regional state university serving a wide and varied public. Midwestern State University aspires to be the public liberal arts university of the state of Texas. Faculty, administrators, staff, and students actively participate in an academic community that focuses, refines, and continuously challenges points of understanding. Liberal arts form the basis of the education provided in both traditional liberal arts areas and professional disciplines at the undergraduate and graduate levels. The university is dedicated to excellence in teaching, enhanced by significant research, creative discovery, and service. Curricular and co-curricular activities support students' intellectual, emotional, ethical, social, and physical growth and foster the ability to see the past clearly, to examine the present fairly, and to act with judiciousness. The university offers an affordable, nurturing, and challenging learning environment that serves citizens of Texas, other states, and many countries. The university strives to prepare its graduates to set high goals, be productive members of the global society, understand and relate to people and ideas different from their own, and continue to learn throughout their lives. MSU prides itself with one of the most attractive campuses in the southwest.
