About
MSU Extended University
At Extended University we believe that lifelong learning and exploring new ideas and methods for learning to occur is crucial to enriching education and improving quality of life. By utilizing technology, mobilizing the rich resources of our campus and extended community, and forging partnerships, we help students of all ages take advantage of the learning opportunities that great instruction and emerging technologies make possible.
At Extended University we focus our efforts in three primary areas:
- Office of Continuing Education: Offering unique learning opportunities to all ages...for credit, professional development or just for fun
- Montana State Online (Distance Degree and Certificate Programs): Providing courses, certificates and degrees for non-traditional students and busy lifestyles
- Burns Technology Center: Exploring and presenting new resources to better utilize technology in teaching and learning
Extended University is an outreach center of Montana State University and is largely funded by fees for service, grants and contracts and private donations.
Extended University mission:
Our mission is to enhance access to high-quality education for a diverse community of learners in Montana--and beyond--in support of MSU's land-grant mission and institutional goals.
Vision:
Extended University provides leadership to MSU in the design and delivery of credit and non-credit programs in online, blended, and face-to-face environments. Extended University staff maximize the use of appropriate and effective educational technologies and the most current understanding of teaching/learning strategies to offer high-quality and relevant outreach and educational opportunities for all.
