Giving Opportunities

We've always been a place where big ideas meet real-world thinking.

Our tradition began in 1868, when we opened our doors to 27 teachers-in-the-making, and it continues today
as we've become a comprehensive doctoral university serving 15,000 students. Now, as we approach our
150th anniversary, we have a great big idea about the future of Minnesota State Mankato:

With your help, we will transform ourselves–and the world.
