Hello! This past year, Minnesota State awarded more than 36,000 degrees, certificates, and diplomas. The contributions of Minnesota State graduates are critically important to the economic vitality of the state. Alumni living and working in Minnesota number more than 849,000 and Minnesota State graduates contribute an estimated $9.4 billion to the states’ economy.

Enjoy!
