Welcome Reception
Each fall and spring semester, The Graduate School hosts a reception for all new graduate students. This event offers each new student the opportunity to meet with faculty, staff, students in their degree program and other students pursuing graduate degrees at Montana State University.
Graduate Seminars
The Graduate School offers Professional Development seminars. These seminars are designed to assist graduate students in pursuit of their career. The presentations are delivered by a diverse and highly knowledgeable pool of MSU staff, faculty, and outside experts.
Graduate Teaching Assistant Orientation
A mandatory orientation is held for new graduate teaching assistants (GTAs) each fall and spring, usually the day before classes begin. Attendance by new graduate teaching assistants is required.
Training and Development Fee
A non-waivable training and development fee of $50 is assessed to each degree-seeking graduate student the first term of registration. Students not assessed this fee are those registered for Extended University courses only, or are those who are non-degree graduate students only.
