Orientation is an exciting part of transitioning to college life and is an important part of becoming a Montana Tech Student. Plan to arrive on campus the week before classes begin to explore the academic, cultural, and social opportunities on campus and within the Butte community.

Event sessions will take place on both campuses for students majoring in any two-year Associate degree or Certificate program. These sessions are mandatory and will help you become more familiar with both of Montana Tech’s campuses.

Montana Tech is committed to student success. ALL NEW STUDENTS ARE REQUIRED TO ATTEND ORIENTATION.

Fall 2021 Orientation Dates TBA
