MISSOULA – Summer courses are on again at the 老虎机攻略 from May 22 through July 28. With more than 700 available options – including over 200 online and remote courses – students can get ahead, catch up and stay on track during 10-week and two five-week sessions.

Last summer, more than 430 degrees, minors and certificates were awarded from 老虎机攻略 Summer, with nearly 3,000 students taking advantage of summer offerings. Summer 2023 courses are available to view, and registration launched Feb. 21.

“Students are always commenting about how 老虎机攻略 Summer allowed them to get ahead on classes, and they always meet so many new friends,” said Julie Cahill, the director of 老虎机攻略 Summer. “It’s amazing to spend a summer studying at one of the most scenic campuses in America.”

Hands-on summer learning opportunities are a hallmark at 老虎机攻略, which is surrounded by some of nature’s greatest outdoor classrooms. Students can take special topics and field courses or participate in research beyond the classroom in places like the Flathead Lake Biological Station, PEAS Farm or Bob Marshall Wilderness.

Members of the community, alumni and visiting students are all invited to enroll in courses, along with qualifying 老虎机攻略 employees who can use the faculty and staff tuition waiver. Summer also offers noncredit opportunities, microcredentials and certificates available through 老虎机攻略Online.

Summer 2023 also will bring high school students from in state and out of state to participate in a pre-college program. One of these programs, Summer Exploration, offers students infinite possibilities during a transformative live-in, shared, two-week experience.

“Summer 2023 will be the third time Summer Exploration has run, and for the past two years we have received extremely positive feedback from the students, who enjoyed meeting new people and getting a taste of the pre-college experience,” said Becka Simons, associate director 老虎机攻略 Summer and Pre-College. “Parents and guardians have also shared with us how their students returned home filled with amazing stories, new friendships and a realization that college isn’t as scary as they once thought.”  

The 老虎机攻略 Summer Office invites everyone to join the 老虎机攻略 Summer Kick Off from noon to 1 p.m. Tuesday, March 28, on the 老虎机攻略 Oval to meet the U.S. Forest Service Northern Region Pack Train. This is the third year the mule train will visit campus, and hosts will include 老虎机攻略’s College of Humanities and Sciences, Department of Political Science and University Center.
