Minnesota State Community and Technical College - Fergus Falls School Description

The MISSION of Minnesota State Community and Technical College is to deliver an accessible education with vigor and integrity for a diverse group of individuals and to prepare them for a dynamic learning, living, and working environment.

Minnesota State Community and Technical College serves more than 6,500 students in credit courses each semester through more than 120 career and liberal arts programs at its four campuses located in Detroit Lakes, Fergus Falls, Moorhead, Wadena, and online.

By partnering with our communities, the college also provides Custom Training Services and other responsive training programs.

Students come to the Fergus Falls campus for academics, but what makes the experience life-changing is the small college feel. Many of our students are commuters, but on-campus housing is available and encouraged and is another great way students form lifelong friendships with one another.

Another compelling reason to start college at Fergus Falls is the high quality of our two year degree and certificate programs. The Fergus Falls campus of Minnesota State Community and Technical College (M State) has been offering high quality academic programs in the liberal arts and health sciences for almost fifty years. Students can earn an Associate of Arts (A.A.), Associate of Fine Arts (A.F.A.) in Music and in Visual Arts, an Associate of Science (A.S.) in Biological Sciences and Medical Laboratory Technology, an Associate Diploma in Nursing and a Certificate in Equine Science.

This year, the Fergus Falls campus is introducing a one year diploma program in Equine Science. This program combines classroom work with courses held at the world-class Red Horse Ranch located eight miles from the campus. Students will learn how to care for horses, ride them, judge events and offer instruction in English and Western riding. Red Horse Ranch can stable student horses or provide them to students who do not own their own mounts.

Our experienced faculty teach courses designed to equip our graduates with the intellectual skills they will need across their lifetimes. These skills are the keys to succeeding in our global economy. The Fergus Falls faculty, collectively, have been nurturing the academic careers of arts and science students for nearly half a century. Many of our graduates are now accomplished in their fields, and these fields are broad, from government, to health, education, law, politics, and business.

Finally, learning to love learning and developing the skills and curiosity required to do that for decades is the foundation for a successful career, a satisfying life and a healthy connection to community. These abilities take time and nurturing to develop, and that happens best in a supportive academic community small enough to touch every student. Fergus Falls is just that sort of place.
