Montana is not your usual study abroad destination! But if

you're looking for something a little... different, then perhaps it

could be for you!Situated to north of the US, sandwiched by the

Dakotas, Wyoming and Idaho, Montana is one of the biggest

states in the US; only Alaska, Texas and California are bigger (it is,

in fact, bigger than the vast majority of the world’s countries,

including Malaysia, Germany and Japan).The name of state

derives from the fact that much of the state is mountainous, with

its western third completely dominated by the Rocky Mountains,

and the middle third peppered with island ranges. The eastern

third of this wide state falls into the Great Plains region,

consisting of seemingly endless prairieland – it’s not for no

reason that they call this state Big Sky Country!

Because of the nature of its topography, it is one of the least

densely populated states, which is one of its main draws – not

everyone wants to be in the big city all the time after all. This is

borne out by the fact that tourism is one of the state’s biggest

industries.Some the state’s main attractions – apart from a

wonderful isolation which can seem hard to come by in much of

the 21st century world – include the enormous and beautiful

Glacier National Park (to use another country comparison, this

park alone is not far off being twice as big as Luxembourg) and

its famously diverse wildlife (see fast facts below).If you study in

Montana, you’ll most likely end up in Missoula, which with a

metropolitan population of nearly 110,000 is as close as you’re going to get to a bustling metropolis in this state (well, okay,

largest city Billings can offer 160,000) or the even smaller

Bozeman, a college town towards the state’s Wyoming border.

蒙大拿州通常都不是大多数人会选择的店铺的目的地!但如果你想找点不同的东西,那么也许它适合你!蒙大拿州位于美国北部,被达科塔斯、怀俄明州和爱达荷州夹在中间,是美国最大的州之一;只有阿拉斯加、德克萨斯和加利福尼亚更大(事实上,它比世界上绝大多数国家都要大,包括马来西亚、德国和日本)。该州的名字来源于这样一个事实:该州的大部分地区都是多山的,西部的三分之一被落基山脉所占据,中间的三分之一是岛屿。这个广袤的州的东部三分之一的地区属于大平原地区,由看似无尽的草原组成,他们称这个州为“大天空之州”,并不是没有原因的。

由于其地形的性质,它是人口最少的国家之一,这是它的主要吸引力之一,并不是所有人都想在大城市中生活。事实证明,旅游业是该州最大的产业之一。国家的一些主要景点——除了一个美妙的隔离可以看起来困难在21世纪的世界——包括巨大和美丽的冰川国家公园(使用另一个国家相比,这个公园就不远了两倍卢森堡)及其著名的多样化的野生动物(参见下面的快速的事实)。如果你在蒙大拿学习,你很可能最终在米苏拉,这个都市人口接近110000人,如果你喜欢呆在一个繁华的城市那么米苏拉很是适合你或者更小的勃兹曼大学。

None of Montana’s universities make the 2011 QS World

University Rankings. However, this does not mean the state’s

institutions lack quality. The two most prominent institutions are

its two public universities, the University of Montana and

Montana State University.The former, located in Missoula, the

state’s second biggest city, serves a total of around 15,500

students, mostly at undergraduate level.It is made up of five

colleges and three schools, among them one of the country’s

most productive forestry research institutes. The College of Arts

and Sciences is by far the largest by enrolment.Its campus has been called the most scenic in the US by Rolling Stone magazine.

Montana State University, located in Bozeman, is the state’s

Land Grant University. It serves 14,000 students, again mostly at

undergraduate level, offering 51 degrees at that level. Master’s

degrees are available in 41 disciplines and doctorates in 18.The

Museum of the Rockies – home to the world’s largest T Rex skull

– is situated on the university’s campus, as are the headquarters

of the state’s public television broadcasting network and a local
