University of Montana seeks grad students

At his State of the University address last Friday, University of Montana President George Dennison said he would like to increase graduate student enrollment at UM and Montana State University, consequently restricting the number of undergraduates admitted to the two universities.

Dennison said enhancing graduate enrollments and developing new funding methods that would include targeted enrollment is on this academic year’s agenda.

His reasoning behind enhancing UM’s graduate enrollment is a “direct correlation” between economic development and graduate enrollments and research.
