SERVICE
Our
college is home to a wide variety of programs that fulfill Montana's land grant
mission of providing services to the people of Montana
and beyond.
Our college helps soldiers serve their country again as teachers - they can
even
take online classes while stationed overseas. Other programs help grandparents
get support as they face challenges in raising their grandchildren, help
HIV and AIDS patients find affordable and safe housing, and help tribal leaders
prevent asthma in Native American children. The College of Education, Health
and Human Development is also home to various programs that provide
unique services to improve quality of life.
Programs include the MOST of Us campaign, Messengers for Health, the Child
Development Center, the Early Childhood Project, the MSU
Testing Service, and the Teacher's Resource Center. |
FACULTY
Our
faculty are as diverse as the programs within our college. Their high quality
research employs the latest technology and methods in the fields of
biomechanics, food and nutrition, consumer sciences, and education. Our research
ranges from education philosophy
to early cancer detection. |
