Michigan Technological University (Michigan Tech, MTU, or simply Tech) is a public enquiry university in Houghton, Michigan. Its main campus sits on 925 acres (374 ha) on a bluff overlooking Portage Lake. Michigan Tech was founded in 1885 every bit the outset post-secondary institution in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and was created to train mining engineers to operate the local copper mines. Michigan Tech has a modest campus containing 36 buildings with the first building being congenital in 1908. The academy is governed past The Lath of Trustees appointed by the Governor of Michigan.^{[iv] [5]}

More than 140 degree programs are offered through its five colleges and schools including applied science, scientific discipline, technology, forestry and business. It is classified among "R2: Doctoral Universities – High research activity".^[6]

The school was originally called Michigan Mining School and started with iv faculty members and 23 students.^[vii] It became coed in 1889.^[8] As mining student enrollment decreased the schoolhouse was renamed Michigan Technological University in 1964. Enrollment in 2021-2022 is 7009 students with approximately 5800 undergraduate students and 1200 graduate students. Students accepted into Michigan Tech accept an average high school GPA of iii.8 Many students are from the state of Michigan; 21% are from out of country and ix% are international. The beginning to second twelvemonth retention rate for starting time-time students is 84.5%, and the 6-year graduation rate is 72.2%, reflecting the large number of students who engage in internships and coops during their undergraduate career. The student to faculty ratio is 13:1.^[9] In fall, 2021, the university had the biggest freshman class since 1982.^[10]

Ford Motor Company donated the Ford Center to Michigan Tech in the 1950s.^[11] It is a historical village once endemic and operated every bit a sawmill by Henry Ford located forty miles south of Michigan Tech's principal campus in Alberta, Michigan. Since 1954, the Ford Center has been an outdoor and ecology education heart utilized by Michigan Tech students enrolled in forestry, ecology, wild fauna ecology and natural resources direction.^[12] Referred to as "Fall Camp" past the students, this center boasts 4906 acres of forest and wetlands where the students attend outdoor classes.^[13] The eye also contains several buildings that the students use for their dormitory, recreation and indoor classes. The Ford Motor Company gave the Michigan Tech a grant in 1996 to turn the sawmill into a museum. The museum is open to the public as well every bit the eye itself for holding conferences and reunions.

Michigan Tech was named one of the state's four nationally recognized research universities along with: University of Michigan, Michigan Land, and Wayne Land. There are 12 inquiry areas ranging from Space Sciences, Electronics, Ecosystems, Energy, Health, Ocean Sciences, and Robotics to name a few. In that location are 18 research centers on and off campus including the Michigan Tech Research Constitute (MTRI). In 2006, the MTRI was established in Ann Arbor, Michigan as an independent enquiry center focusing on technology evolution to empathise natural and homo-made environments.^{[14] [15]}

Michigan Tech's able-bodied teams are nicknamed the Huskies and compete primarily in the NCAA Partition II Corking Lakes Intercollegiate Able-bodied Briefing (GLIAC). The men'southward hockey team competes in Division I equally a member of the Central Collegiate Hockey Association (CCHA), and has won 3 national championships. The women's basketball team were national runners-up in 2011.

History [edit]

1895 advertisement for the Michigan Mining School

Michigan Tech was founded in 1885 as the Michigan Mining School.^[16] After much agitation by Jay Abel Hubbell, the state legislature established the school to train mining engineers. Hubbell donated land for the school's first buildings.^[17]

The school started with 4 faculty members and twenty-three students. Information technology was housed in the Houghton Fire Hall from 1886 through 1889.^[18]

MTU'due south first president was Marshman East. Wadsworth (1887–1898).^[19] Enrollment grew to such a point that its name no longer reflected its purpose. The name was then changed to the Michigan College of Mines in 1897.^[twenty] This name lasted through Earth State of war I until 1925, but past this time the school had begun offering a wider diversity of degrees and once again decided to alter its name to the Michigan College of Mining and Technology in 1927.^[20]

Fred W. McNair (1899–1924) was the higher'southward second president. Past 1931, enrollment had reached nearly 600. Over the next few years, due to the Peachy Depression, coin was deficient, causing department heads and even the president of the university, William O. Hotchkiss, to take pay cuts.

Nether President Grover C. Dillman (1935–1956), the schoolhouse underwent many notable changes, including the construction of the Memorial Wedlock Building, the purchasing of an ice rink and a golf course also as the procurement of the hamlet of Alberta, Michigan.^[19]

In 1956, J. Robert Van Pelt became the new president of the academy. He restarted many PhD programs and created a focus on research. This included the school'due south first analog computation course in 1956–57.^[21]

In 1964, one of the final years of his presidency, the school inverse from a college to a university, changing its name a concluding time to Michigan Technological University. The change from the Michigan Higher of Mining and Technology was necessary for ii reasons, co-ordinate to Van Pelt. Starting time, the higher had expanded too greatly and the electric current proper name was no longer an authentic title. Too, including "mining" in the proper noun of the higher was misleading.^[22] The proper noun "Michigan Technological Academy" was chosen in order to retain the nickname "Michigan Tech" that had already been in use since 1927. Along with its new name, the school also gained new constitutional status in 1964. This gave responsibility for control of the university to its Board of Control rather than the state legislature.^[23]

Although engineering however accounts for some 63 percentage of all enrollment as of fall 2019, the university at present offers 125 undergraduate degree programs and 75 graduate caste programs.^[24]

Women at Michigan Tech [edit]

Women began to attend classes at Michigan Technological University, and then the Michigan Higher of Mines, around 1890. The early female students were mostly daughters of professors or wealthy businessmen of the Houghton, Hancock expanse. They were allowed to accept classes and were given special student status, which meant that they could exist enrolled in courses but were non able to receive a degree.

Early women [edit]

The offset woman to receive a caste from MCM was Margaret R Holley, who was born in Lake Linden and received a liberal arts degree at a unlike university exterior of the Upper Peninsula. She then moved dorsum to Houghton to work on a chemistry caste, which she received in 1933 and two years later received a principal's degree in chemical science from this school.

The outset woman faculty member of the Michigan Higher of Mines came in 1927, her name was Ella Wood and was hired equally an assistant professor for the Humanities department. She was made an associate professor by 1928, a total professor by 1935 and the caput of geography and languages past 1937. Professor Wood was accepted into the academy five years before women were allowed to pursue degrees. She likewise worked in the library and taught meteorology to help with pilot training sessions to students during WWII.^[25] Her presence encouraged many young ladies to use for special student status and take classes at the school and ultimately immune women to receive degrees at this school. As co-ed enrollment increased, she promoted women interest on campus and co-educational programs. She likewise became the bookish counselor to all female person students and thoroughly enjoyed the role of "mother"^[25] that she was able to play hither to all of her students. Dr. Forest also held the title "Dean of Women", making her the first adult female to receive the title Dean at the university.^[25]

Margaret Holley Chapman was the kickoff woman to complete a degree program from Michigan College of Mining and Applied science, which would become Michigan Technological University in 1964. She earned a Available of Science in General Scientific discipline in 1933, and another in chemistry the following year. Margaret went on to become a candidate for a primary's degree in General Science. Non but was she the first female to receive a caste from Michigan Tech, she was besides the first female trustee and requested that a scholarship be established to assist other female students to finance their education. The Margaret H. Chapman Endowed Scholarship is however agile to this day.

The first female to graduate with a caste in Chemical Technology was Alice Runge in 1942. Following shortly behind was the showtime female to graduate with High Honors in Metallurgical & Materials Engineering, Lilian (Heikkinen) Brook, in 1947. She was too the kickoff female from Michigan Tech to be inducted into the Alpha Sigma Mu honorary fraternity of the International Metallurgical Lodge. One year later, Marian Ione (Smith) Scott was the first female to earn a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering.

Michigan Technological University recently celebrated the 50th anniversary of graduation for Patricia Anthony, the first woman to graduate from the ECE Department in 1967. Patricia went to Michigan Technological University in 1963 after graduating from high school in Grandville, Michigan. While attending MTU, she was the Vice President of the Lambda Beta sorority, a DJ at the Wadsworth Hall radio station, and was a member of the U.S. Army ROTC auxiliary, the Argent Stars. She graduated in 1967 from Michigan Tech with the degree Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering. Following her graduation, Patricia took a position with IBM, where she spent the majority of her career. She became well known inside IBM equally a skilled systems engineer working in data communications. Throughout her professional person career, she plant time for community service activities such as Junior Accomplishment, United Way, and the Girl Scouts.

Women in athletics [edit]

The beginning woman varsity athlete was Nada J. Fenton, who was a member of the rifle team during the 1950s. She was a graduate of Houghton Loftier school and entered MTU in 1952. Nada holds the tape of existence the offset woman to ever fire on a varsity rifle team in the world.

Today Michigan Tech has seven women's varsity sports including basketball game, cross country, Nordic skiing, tennis, rails and field, volleyball, and soccer.

Today [edit]

As of the fall semester in 2021, the total enrollment at Michigan Technological University is vi,977. Of those students, two,054 of them were females (an all-time high); which means female students make up nearly 29% of the enrollment at Michigan Tech.^[x]

Campus [edit]

The primary Michigan Tech campus is located in Houghton, Michigan—north of Highway US 41 and south of the Portage Canal.

The main Michigan Tech campus is mainly situated on US-41 in Houghton. Information technology is the safest campus in Michigan, and the tertiary safest in the United States, co-ordinate to Reader's Assimilate.^[26] The main part of campus tin exist traversed in about 10 minutes. The Lakeshore Center in downtown Houghton houses the offices of Human Relations, Vice President for Research, and other departments.^[27] Kinesthesia are involved in several distance education programs with clients including General Motors.

The Portage Lake Golf game Course opened for play in April 1902. In 1945, the members could no longer support the needs of the course and sold it to Michigan Tech for one dollar. Since then, many improvements have been made such equally the addition of another nine holes in 1969. In 1984, the new clubhouse was constructed. In 1996, a sprinkler system was installed to modernize the grade and keep it playable. The Portage Lake Golf game Class is located two miles (3 km) southeast of campus. With xviii holes on 160 acres, information technology offers two nines of distinctly different flavors and challenges.^[28]

Mont Ripley is the oldest ski area in Michigan (established in the 1900s) in the snowiest city in the Midwest. It is also academy-owned, and then Michigan Tech students ski or snowboard for free. Mont Ripley has twenty-two trails, a terrain park, a tubing park, sits on 112 acres, and has a scenic overlook of the Keweenaw Waterway. It is nigh two miles from campus; the colina is viewable from nigh campus buildings.^[29] In 2019, Michigan Tech's Mont Ripley earned the university a No. thirteen rating on College Census' 25 All-time Colleges for Skiing and Snowboarding list.^[30]

Michigan Tech Trails In 2001, Michigan Tech implemented a plan to develop the trails as a way to secure funding for the Michigan Tech Varsity Nordic skiing program and to create facility to attract outdoor-loving students. The Michigan Tech Higher of Woods Resources and Ecology Scientific discipline proposed that acquirement could be generated from timber harvesting to support the team and upgrade the trails. The academy'due south cross country ski trail arrangement is located well-nigh the Pupil Development Circuitous in the Michigan Tech Recreational Forest. Information technology includes 33 km of groomed cantankerous country ski trails (both classic and skate sections) and xi.seven km of clean-cut snowshoe trails. 7.5 km of the trail is lighted. The Tech Trails are nationally recognized for the quality or skiing, consistency of grooming and diversity of terrain. The trail arrangement, with the help of hundreds of volunteers, hosted the U.s. Junior National Championships, and U.S. Senior National championships, along with regional races. It is the selected site to host the host 2023 Us Cross Country Ski Championships.^[31] With Houghton's average snowfall of 218 inches, the flavor usually opens in early December and continues into Apr. Students ski gratis; community members tin purchase a pass.^[32]
