The Dean of Students Office is a resource center for all Michigan Tech students. Our goal is to guide, support, and, on occasion, challenge students in their academic and personal endeavors. Student success is at the heart of our work.
You’re here to change your life. The rewards are phenomenal, but the journey isn’t always easy. We're here if you need help along the way, advocating on your behalf and providing resources and referrals to make those tough spots just a bit easier.
