In its 2023 America’s Best Graduate Schools rankings, U.S. News & World Report recognized five of Michigan State University’s graduate programs as first in the nation, with several others appearing in the top 20. MSU’s nuclear physics graduate program and elementary and secondary education graduate programs all continued long-running streaks at No. 1.

The continued high rating of our graduate programs is testament to the excellence of our faculty and staff — the core of our Spartan community. Students seeking graduate degrees come to MSU for our high-caliber programs and because they know they will learn from and work with some of the most talented faculty in their fields.
