Historical Note

At Michigan State University, graduate classes have been offered from at least 1861. The first graduate degree offered was a masters of science degree. The Graduate School was created in 1928. Its name was changed in 1944 to the Graduate Studies School, in 1955 to the Advanced Graduate Studies School, and in 1975 back to its original name, Graduate School.
