Montana Western is unique because we are the only public, four-year institution in the nation that offers Experience One, where taking one course at a time allows our students to engage in authentic, experiential education that can’t be replicated under a traditional semester schedule. This structure allows our students and faculty to spend much of their class time with hands-on instruction in the field, lab, community, or classroom. An additional benefit to our unique instructional model is our award-winning faculty are able to focus on one small group of students at a time. This allows our students to get the most out of their educational experiences and apply them to solving real-world challenges.
