OUR LAND GRANT ROOTS POWER OUR VISION FOR THE FUTURE

Established in 1855 as the nation’s pioneer land-grant university and Michigan’s first agricultural college, MSU was called upon to address growing areas of concern in the country: education, agriculture, infrastructure and science. Today, MSU’s 5,200 acre campus is still home to leading research, as well as cutting-edge technologies, award-winning programs and thousands of Spartans working to make a difference every day. Learn more about how our agricultural roots guide our actions for a better tomorrow.
