Michigan State University (MSU) is a public university in East Lansing, Michigan. As the first agricultural college in the United States, it served as a model for future Land Grant colleges under the 1862 Morrill Act. Well known for its academic programs in education and agriculture, MSU pioneered the studies of packaging and music therapy. MSU is home to the second-oldest hospitality school in the United States, and the study abroad program is the largest of any single-campus university in the country, offering more than 200 programs in more than 60 countries on all continents including Antarctica.
Following the introduction of the Morrill Act, the college became coeducational and expanded its curriculum beyond agriculture. After World War II, the number of students tripled as the institution became a major university. As of 2005, MSU is the United States' sixth-largest university by enrollment. As a research university, MSU is one of 60 members of the Association of American Universities.
MSU's Division I sports teams are nicknamed the Spartans. They compete in the Big Ten Conference in all sports except ice hockey, in which the team is part of the Central Collegiate Hockey Association. MSU's football team won the Rose Bowls in 1954, 1956, and 1988. Its men's basketball team won the NCAA National Championship in 1979 and 2000.
