Minnesota State University, Mankato (MSU or MNSU), also known as Minnesota State, is a public comprehensive university located in Mankato, Minnesota. The university sits atop the bluff of the Blue Earth River valley, approximately 75 miles (121 km) southwest of Minneapolis-St. Paul. Founded as Mankato Normal School in 1868, it is the second oldest member of the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities System. It is also the second largest public university in the state and has over 115,000 alumni worldwide.[6][7] It is the most comprehensive of the seven universities and is referred to as the flagship of the Minnesota State Universities and Colleges system.[1][8][9][10] It is an important part of the economy of South-Central Minnesota as it adds more than $452 million to the economy of Minnesota annually.[11]

Minnesota State offers 140 undergraduate programs of study, 80 graduate programs and 4 doctoral programs. Students are served by 750 full-time faculty members creating a 21:1 student to faculty ratio. In addition to the main campus, it operates two satellite campuses: one in the Twin Cities suburb of Edina and the other in Owatonna. Through the College of Extended Learning it provides bachelor's degrees at the Normandale Partnership Center and programs online through an online campus.

History

Early years

The State Legislature recognized the need for an education center in southern Minnesota by 1860. In 1866 it authorized the development of a state run normal school and Mankato was selected for the site. Through the efforts of local attorney/state legislator Daniel Buck, the newly formed City of Mankato donated $5,000 and raised $5,000 in bonds for the founding of the second state normal school, Mankato Normal School.[12] The first classes were held in 1868 with an enrollment of 27 students. The institution's original mission was to train and educate teachers for rural schools in southern Minnesota. During this early period, Mankato Normal School provided educational certificates and a majority of students were women.[13] In relation to this focus on women's education, Mankato Normal School is noted as the first public college in the United States to be headed by a woman, suffragette Julia Sears, in 1872.

State Teachers College

By 1921, the school had grown significantly to the point that it began to offer 4 year bachelor's degrees. As a result, it was renamed the Mankato State Teachers College. Enrollment then dipped during World War II and the college refocused it's extension programs on providing education to members of the Works Progress Administration and Naval Corps.[13]

Rapid post World War II expansion

During the post World War II period, student enrollment expanded greatly. The original university buildings were then located in what was known as the Wilson Campus. It was located geographically down the hill in lower Mankato. The size and footprint of the Wilson Campus could not sustain the space needed to handle the growing student body. By the late 1950s work began on constructing an entirely new, modern campus atop the river valley bluff. This became the Highland Campus.[13] A new experimental elementary school was built on the Highland Campus to research and apply new teaching methods.

Transition to comprehensive university

By 1957, the mission of the institution had broadened to comprehensive 4-year college education, the state legislature changed the name of the college to Mankato State College. The following years saw additional enrollment growth. The Wilson Campus was eventually sold to a private developer and the Highland Campus grew in size.[13]

In 1975, the college was renamed to Mankato State University. This change reflected a further 40% growth in the student body to 12,000 students by 1972.[12] Following this period was a movement toward increasing the number of available programs including science, technology, engineering, health sciences and others. The university became more comprehensive in its programmatic offerings.

Change to Minnesota State University

Minnesota State University Entrance Sign - Built in 2008, the sign is carved out a single block of Kasota stone, which is a local building material only found in the area.

In 1995, the seven state universities were transferred to the newly created Minnesota State Colleges and Universities system by the state legislature. Shortly after this, the University was renamed Minnesota State University, Mankato in 1998 in recognition of its significant contribution to the state's higher education system.[14] This name change was also intended to broaden recognition of the university in the Midwest region. In 2007, in another major milestone - the University was authorized to begin offering applied doctoral degrees.[15]
