Graduate School Information

The University and Graduate School maintains a number of information sources pertinent to graduate education. This page summarizes the most commonly requested information and frequently used reports.

All graduate students

The following WebFocus reports are helpful for all graduate students:

  • Email search - this report allows you to enter an email address (Michigan Tech or external) for a student and find the m-number and name associated with it.
  • Telephone search - this report allows you to enter a telephone number and search for the student’s name, m-number and email. This can be very helpful if you have the phone number from a voicemail.

Institutional Research maintains the following resources that are helpful when University Data is needed.

Career Services maintains a Career Outcomes Dashboard available on the portal area of WebFocus. Contact them for access or additional information.
