Make history at UM. Literally.

Sometimes it’s research in a biochemistry lab and other times it's revitalizing endangered languages. Sometimes it’s something you never knew you could research. What history will you make? That’s up to you.

Why Apply?

There’s more to the University of Montana than our mountainous academics … but, let’s face it, they’re pretty impressive. From finance to welding to forestry to law — we offer you more than 175 academic programs to summit success.

Big Things Are Happening Here

At UM, we approach everything with creativity because that’s what this evolving world needs. We are stewards of this place, its history and our future. We know of no better place than Montana and its university to make a lasting impact on the common good.
