The Montana State University System was created on July 1, 1994, when the Montana Board of Regents of Higher Education restructured the state's colleges and universities into two umbrella universities, Montana State University System and the University of Montana System. Each of these two subsystems has campuses in four cities, with a university President at the main campus, and Chancellors at each of the three smaller units. The main campus gives administrative and library assistance to the three smaller units, but each unit sets its own curriculum with Board of Regents approval.
