Planning Council: Core Theme #2
Creating Knowledge and Art
MSU provides a student-focused, collegial environment that supports knowledge creation and artistic expression by students, faculty, staff, and community partners (that results in student growth, research productivity, technology transfer, community development).
A faculty, committed to research and other creative activities, provides the impetus for student involvement in all aspects of the scholarly enterprise and community engagement [learning, discovery, engagement/education, research, community service, technology transfer…]
A distinguishing feature of MSU is our interdisciplinary and collegial approach to research and creative activity in which students are active participants.
