Academics
SVSU offers 90 academic programs leading to bachelor’s, master’s, and specialist degrees.
Excellent Faculty
82% of SVSU's full-time faculty hold a Ph.D. or the highest equivalent degree in their field.
Connected Faculty and Students
When you visit SVSU, either online or in person, you will see interaction between our well-credentialed faculty and our students. One reason is certainly because of our size. Another is because by and large, SVSU is a teaching university.
Certainly research goes on here, but the reason our faculty are at SVSU is because they love to:
- Teach
- Interact with students
- Get involved with helping shape young lives
- Lead by example
Shared Learning Experiences
Active learning with expert faculty leads to expanded educational opportunities such as:
- Faculty/student collaborations
- Using technology in the classroom
- Student-led research
Benefiting from Our Region
Our students benefit from living within the Saginaw Valley region (Bay City, Midland & Saginaw) -- an inviting cultural, civic, and professional hub.
What does that mean for you? Great internship opportunities, international speakers, touring musicals, and access to local and state government.
