Montana University system has long record of leading, contributing

The value of the Montana University System http://www.mus.edu/ is felt far beyond the cities in which its campuses and agencies reside.

More than 43,000 individuals currently are students within the system. They are joined by thousands more in our partner community colleges and tribal colleges. Collectively, they touch Montana businesses that rely on a skilled work force and advance our economy by meeting immediate needs, creating new companies and spending their earnings in the state’s communities.

A recent study by the Center on Education and the Workforce at Georgetown University contains important information for Montana. Projections show that 68 percent of the jobs available in Montana between now and 2018 will require postsecondary education.
