Michigan Technological University (MTU)
(Houghton, MI)
Michigan Tech was founded in 1885 in response to the first mining boom in the US-the clamor for Michigan's copper, which preceded the California Gold Rush by several years.
At its outset, the college trained mining and metallurgical engineers. Today, the University offers certificates, associate, bachelors, masters, and doctoral degrees in arts, humanities, and social sciences; business and economics; computing; engineering, forestry and environmental science, sciences; and technology.
Our undergraduates benefit from an education that emphasizes study across disciplines, team learning, and research. Our graduate students receive intensive, advanced instruction.
