The School of Graduate Studies provides students with the support they need to get their degrees, and it shows.
“I have been very pleased with the MBA program at BSU. The amount of knowledge I have gained is definitely meeting the expectations I had in mind for the program. At first I was worried about working full-time, but I now realize this is actually a benefit because I’m able to apply the knowledge and tools I’m learning right away. It’s hard at times, but I quickly learned how to adapt my schedule in order to have adequate time for my studies. I hope to someday teach at the university level and I believe receiving my MBA from BSU is the correct step in that direction!”

“I wish to personally thank Dr. Sanjeev Phukan for the creation of the MBA degree. I have found that much of the material which we have covered has served to enhance certain elements of the knowledge, understanding, and experience which I had accrued during a 30 year career in the industrial field. The opportunity that the on-line format provides to study with other professionals working in diverse responsibilities allows for a greater understanding of the topics at hand to be synthesized. Thank you again.”

“I had a fantastic experience with my graduate degree at Bemidji State University. The faculty and staff were all so helpful and went out of their way for me. I would recommend this school to anyone! My degree was completed completely online and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Help with registering for the correct classes, independent studies, degree completion, research paper, and graduating couldn’t have been any better.”
– Lauren K.
“I had a great experience and will, and have, recommended it for others.”

” I really liked how we were provided activities we could use in our classroom, and not just theoretical ideas. I liked the grant money to make the classes more affordable. I also enjoyed being able to interact with other math teachers. Thank you Todd, Derek and Glenn for all you taught me!”

“I believe the program at Bemidji State is very well organized and requires a student to be at their best. It is not a program for the weak. Graduating from Bemidji State means you have put forth a lot of effort.”

“The program met my academic goals and provided the flexibility through online offerings while having the ability to quickly connect with faculty members. This has been a great experience. All involved–graduate studies office, academic advisor, and faculty members were helpful in meeting my academic goals as a student.”
– Tara H.
“Strengths were small, interactive class sizes, engaged faculty and the faculty’s willingness to work with you one on one. Faculty were approachable, helpful and knowledgeable. They were also understanding that many of us were working professionals. Only weakness was that some courses were a lot more work than what the credit was set for. I wish it hadn’t ended. Northern MN needs more Master’s programs. Was great and worthwhile experience.”
– Alita R.
“I appreciated how quickly everything went with the research paper. Faculty and staff were quick to respond to all my questions.”
– Amie W.
“BSU’s biology graduate program was a great stepping stone in my development as a wildlife biologist. I appreciate how the professors and course work provided me with the tools I needed to start my career in the natural resources field. Thank you!”
– Kris S.
“I feel like the program is well established and is fluid. I will have to say that if not for Joan Miller in the graduate office, completing my masters would have been extremely difficult. She has offered assistance and is thoroughly knowledgeable of the process and she communicates professionally and timely.”
– Denise L.
“Thank you Dr. Bridges for sharing your wisdom, time and expertise with me. Thank you Joan for all of your assistance and patience during this educational journey.”
– Kimberly J.
“I had some great instructors (Dr. Van Erp and Dr. Urban) who took the extra time needed to run efficient and interactive online courses. Online courses can be challenging to pull off when trying to include group activities, the right amount of independent work, the necessary core material, and an integration of technology. The instructors listed above really knew what they were doing and took the time to communicate and be a part of the course as well.”
– Sarah K.
“Thank you for all you’ve done to assist me to complete my planned endeavors and dreams.”
