Montana State University is located in beautiful Bozeman, MT and is Montana’s largest university with 16,000 students. Bozeman is a small town with big energy, best known for outdoor recreation. The cultural amenities of a much larger city include a symphony, opera, and ballet companies, as well as many locally-owned shops, restaurants, and galleries. Skiing, hiking, camping, biking, climbing, and fishing options are endless because Bozeman is surrounded by five mountain ranges and three rivers within a half hour of campus. There is plenty of National Forest land to explore, and Yellowstone National Park is just 90 miles away.Montana State is growing at exceptional rates and our department is too.
