Minnesota School of Business/Globe College
By Anna Stevens
The Minnesota School of Business of Rochester opened in 2005, adding Rochester to six sites in the Twin Cities and St. Cloud that offer their programing. Students at MSB-Rochester Campus, which is partnered with Globe University, bring a wide range of experiences to the classroom.
First-time college students and working professionals share a common goal of career preparation, which instructors help them achieve in their respective fields. MSB-Rochester offers bachelor’s, associate, and diploma programs in health sciences, business, legal sciences, information technology, and interactive media and graphic design.
Faculty and students at MSB-Rochester/Globe College work closely with the professional community of Rochester. “As a career college we continue to work with employers and the community to meet their needs, allowing our students the greatest opportunities upon graduation,” says Shan Pollitt, campus director. “By staying in contact with the employers we can adapt programs and curriculum to meet their needs.”
