Information About Montclair State University
Established in 1908 as a two-year Normal School in response to the growing demand for professionally trained teachers, MSU became Montclair State Teachers College in 1927, dedicated to the education of secondary school teachers through a four-year Bachelor of Arts program. Part-time, extension and summer courses were added, and in 1932 Montclair was authorized to offer the master’s degree. With its strong emphasis on the liberal arts and sciences, in 1937 Montclair became the first state teachers college accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools. Responding to rapid enrollment growth in the late 1940s and 1950s with an expanded curriculum and faculty, the school became Montclair State College in 1958 and a comprehensive, multi-purpose institution in 1966. Based on the strengths of its academic programs and faculty and its commitment to excellence in instruction and research, in 1994 Montclair State became the first of the state colleges to become a university. The University has two approved doctoral programs in Pedagogy (Ed.D) and Environmental Management (D.Env.M.).
