New Catalog Format

The Office of the Registrar is transitioning the undergraduate and graduate catalogs to a new format through a new system implementation. During this transition, the 2023-2024 catalog will be available in the current format and in the new Acalog format. Academic realignment may be reflected differently in each format, but course and program content remains the same. Please contact curriculum@missouristate.edu with questions or concerns. 

The Office of the Registrar will publish the 2024-2025 catalogs after the Spring 2024 semester ends. The 2024-2025 catalog will be available only in the new Acalog catalog format. 

What is the Catalog?

The Missouri State University Undergraduate Catalog and Graduate Catalog are primarily intended for use by currently enrolled and prospective students, faculty, advisors, and staff.  The catalogs provide an overview of the University’s curriculum, academic programs and courses, and educational resources.  They also include University academic policies, rules, and procedures; information about degree and certificate programs, including degree requirements; a listing and description of courses; and a faculty listing.

How Often Are the Catalogs Updated?

The Undergraduate Catalog and Graduate Catalog are published by the Office of the Registrar.  Although course offerings and academic requirements at Missouri State University are continually under examination and revision, each year’s catalog will be published at the end of the spring semester. This annual revision procedure helps ensure that users of the catalogs will not find unexpected changes during their academic planning processes. Students and advisors should consult the registration and degree audit systems for the most up to date course offerings and academic/degree requirements. The currently published catalog is the final catalog publication for academic year 2023-2024.
