Michigan State University is a public land-grant research university in East Lansing, Michigan. It was the first institution of its kind in the United States when it opened in 1855 under the name Agricultural College of the State of Michigan. Let’s check out the article for more information on Michigan State University.

When was Michigan State University Founded?

The Agricultural College of the State of Michigan was founded in 1855, the first of its kind in the United States, preceding the Agricultural College of Pennsylvania founded in 1855 and renamed in 1862, the Maryland Agricultural College and the University of Wisconsin.

It was inspired by the rise of scientific agriculture in Europe in the first half of the nineteenth century and the desire for formal agricultural education at the college level by forward-thinking agriculturalists in Michigan.

Public debates about the advantages of establishing an agricultural college for Michigan’s farmers and economy were spearheaded by the influential agricultural publication, The Michigan Farmer and the Michigan State Agricultural Society.

How Many Acres does the University of Michigan Campus Cover?

The campus sits on the edge of the Red Cedar River. Campus construction began in 1856 with the construction of three structures: “the multipurpose College Hall building, a dorm known today as Saints’ Rest and a barn”. The current total land area of the MSU campus is 5,300 acres of which only 2,000 acres have been built upon.

There are 563 structures in total including 107 classrooms, 131 agricultural facilities, 166 residential and dining facilities and 42 athletic facilities. The total amount of square footage inside the campus buildings is 2,114,754.2 square feet.

Besides its main campus, MSU has 44 additional properties it owns across 28 states for a total of 22,000 acres (8,900 ha). Five campus parking lots were selected for a solar installation that cost $22.5 million and construction began in early 2017.
