The Montana University System (MUS) was created on July 1, 1994, when the Montana Board of Regents of Higher Education restructured the state's colleges and universities, with the goal of streamlining the state's higher education in the wake of decreased state funding.[1] It has fourteen campuses divided into five categories: Two State University Systems, Community Colleges, Tribal Colleges, Independent Colleges.[2]

Each university subsystem has campuses in four cities/towns, 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.
