Graduate College

This is a fantastic time for graduate education at Missouri State University! We have over 4,000 graduate students enrolled and offer 176 credentials, including graduate certificates and master’s, specialist and doctoral degrees.


The Graduate College works with the other colleges to support graduate students and faculty. We oversee a student’s journey, beginning with admission and continuing through graduation. We ensure that highly qualified faculty are teaching graduate courses and directing student research. We partner with other institutions and corporate partners in order to increase access to quality graduate programming.


We facilitate the awarding of graduate student scholarships and provide funding to students to offset costs associated with their research and travel to professional conferences. We also partner with Graduate Student Senate to ensure that we are responsive to the current needs of students.


Giving Day 2024 offers a unique opportunity to allow us to do more! Your contribution will provide additional support for students who are doing stellar work and allow them to further increase the impact of MSU graduate education.
