MSU-M to add psychology doctorate

Mississippi State University-Meridian (MSU-M) will begin offering a Doctor of Psychology degree in the fall semester. It will be the first doctoral program offered at the campus since it opened in 1972. The doctoral program, along with an additional Bachelor of Science in healthcare administration program, were approved by the Board of Trustees of the Mississippi Institutions of Higher Learning during its March meeting. On March 29, MSU President Mark E. Keenum was visiting the Queen City to reaffirm the university's commitment to the city and Meridian campus. “I am excited about all that we have going on and the potential for further growth,” he told the Meridian Star. “It is not me, it is all of you, and it is a commitment of so many people who love this community and want to see this community to do well.” MSU-Meridian’s downtown Riley Campus is home to a new Master of Physician Assistant Studies program, the state’s only publicly funded master’s degree program of its kind and will add a Master of Science in Nursing degree program.
