Hello!
Minnesota State offers 4,000 academic programs across the trades, liberal arts, STEM, and professional fields and serves as the state’s talent engine. Students can earn certificates, diplomas, or degrees ranging from associate’s, bachelor’s, master’s to doctorates. Today I share stories that illustrate that range of opportunities for our students. The first is a student working on his associate’s degree with plans to go straight into the workforce upon graduation. The second is a student who earned her master’s and a doctorate and now works in a medical clinic in St. Paul. Enjoy!
