A new initiative focusing on Mississippi State’s faculty members ensures they have an abundance of resources and support to thrive at the university, which has been cited as a “Great College to Work For” for nine consecutive years.

Eight Mississippi State students are heading abroad this year with the help of the highly competitive Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship, marking the largest group of MSU recipients in university history.

Mississippi State University chemistry Ph.D. student Chibuike Onyeogulu recently represented MSU on the international stage as one of only 60 students selected from a global pool to attend the American Chemical Society’s Green and Sustainable Chemistry Summer School—a competitive and fully funded program held July 27–August 1 at the University of Vermont in Burlington.
