November 14, 2016/

The nation’s oldest higher education association has named Montana State University the winner of a national award that recognizes a public research university’s exemplary initiatives in education and workforce development.

MSU won the "talent" category of the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities’ fourth annual Innovation and Economic Prosperity Awards. It was one of six universities to be named a finalist for the awards; those six universities competed for four different awards that recognize different components of university economic engagement: talent, innovation, place and connections. The association announced the winners Nov. 13 at its annual meeting in Austin, Texas.
