Our Impact

For nearly 140 years Mississippi State University has been an important institution to its

home state, with strides in teaching, research and service helping our region of the United States reach unparalleled levels of progress. Beyond our region, the university’s reputation has grown tremendously in recent decades to one of increasing importance nationwide and to a growing world.

From its origins, Mississippi State was founded as an educational institution capable of addressing realworld problems through research and service. Today, our university seeks to build on our history of international outreach by delivering beneficial science-based information to people where they live and work, by way of the highly successful methods developed through the university’s extension system and other endeavors.

Mississippi State's past is storied with achievements in many areas. In particular, the university was part of an international team that described the first gold-standard genome sequence for cotton, leading to increased cotton production, quality and sustainability. Additionally, the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences’ seed technology program has trained hundreds of individuals from dozens of countries and made major contributions to food production with strides in pioneering research.

Mississippi State is continuously developing

international collaborations across a range of disciplines, and our efforts are far reaching. Our university has established a new International Institute to coordinate engagement in research, education and extension activities that address pressing humanitarian, social and economic issues in emerging nations. Furthermore, the university’s Global Lecture Series brings world leaders to campus, from which students, faculty and staff can derive knowledge.

Our institution has boldly entered into a formal agreement with the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) to work together on initiatives to address world hunger and poverty, focusing immediate efforts on food safety and nutrition. This agreement will lead to proposed solutions as Mississippi State works with globally diversified FAO teams to eliminate starvation in developing countries.

The work of many researchers within Mississippi State translates on a global scale as part of a

widespread effort known as One Health. The One Health movement is a solidifying strategy to help individuals across continents gain better health.

Private gifts are enabling Mississippi State's people to continue at the forefront of veterinary medicine as they explore the intersection of human, animal and environmental health. With privately-funded assistantships, promising students can research alongside some of the university’s high-caliber faculty and further One Health for people and animals everywhere, creating an infinite impact through discovery.

The world is changing, as is Mississippi State and the way our university educates its students.

In the future, a partnership school and a center for rural education will enable Mississippi State to work toward providing support for issues faced by education in rural parts of the United States and correlate that research for solutions to similar issues in rural areas of developing nations.

in rural education once a campus-built school accelerates our efforts. More gifts can help entrench Mississippi State in the role of an epicenter for students and faculty to assemble from across the university and work on complex educational issues and research for many disciplines as we train future educators.

Before its first half-century mark as a land-grant institution, Mississippi State answered the call of a growing culture. The then-known Mississippi Agricultural and Mechanical College graduated its first international student in 1923, and a tradition of drawing students from around the world began. Since that time, Mississippi State has become a magnet for students from many lands because of its academic offerings and the hospitality extended to all who join the Bulldog family. The institution’s over 21,600 studentenrollment now includes students from all 50 U.S. states and more than 70 countries.

Students at Mississippi State are not only learning in the classrooms and laboratories of the university, they are taking that learning to a new level through study abroad experiences. Opportunities exist for many students to journey to other continents and couple international classroom study with exposure to a new social and economic culture. Mississippi State students profit from opportunities to travel and conduct research abroad and also from interaction in these host countries.

Mississippi State is no longer bound by geography. Great possibilities for education and research begin on our campus and spill out across the continents. Moving forward, diversity

and advancement remain among Mississippi State’s greatest commitments. In an increasingly interconnected world, our university must apply its teaching, research and engagement capabilities to address global challenges and, at the same time, provide our students with international perspectives and experiences to help prepare them for their professional careers in the United States and abroad. These experiences will better prepare our graduates to compete in the global marketplace.

Philanthropy is essential to the future of Mississippi State, and a comprehensive capital campaign is a transformative and ambitious way for our university to pursue strategic goals. At this juncture, Infinite Impact: The Mississippi State University Campaign is providing the support needed to drive the institution toward its long-range goal of inclusion among those public universities of national prominence that understand the need for endeavors of international importance. Beyond the financial advantages of the Infinite Impact campaign, Mississippi State has an ultimate goal—positively changing lives through the work of students and faculty.

In this fourth publication of our annual report campaign series, the MSU Foundation proudly showcases how we are improving the world for the betterment of life now and in the future. Our impact of success, discovery, outreach, experience and globalization can be infinite and together our efforts will help change the world one student and one accomplishment at a time.

Food Security

Despite modern advancements in food production, hunger and malnutrition continue to

threaten the lives of millions. By the year 2050, the world population is expected to top 9.5 billion. Without increasing the amount of arable land, feeding that population will require producers to nearly double their current output. While this concern to meet the demand poses many questions, Mississippi State University is successfully investigating the possibilities.

Recognizing international food security as a primary research priority, ambitious students and esteemed faculty are employing innovative education in the battle against food shortages. Although the issue is a university-wide priority, the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS), Mississippi State’s oldest academic unit, is leading efforts in the pursuit of sustainable solutions through precision agriculture.

Precision agriculture is a modern farm management practice that is site-specific to optimize production, profitability, sustainability and protection of the environment. Driven by modern equipment and remotesensing satellite technology, the highly detailed practice helps farmers to more easily identify issues and develop the best “prescription” for their fields. These capabilities are instrumental in delivering more stability and maximizing potential.

While researchers at Mississippi State have utilized the principles, technologies, tools and innovations associated with precision agriculture for several years, newly developed initiatives in the field are enabling our university to remain at the forefront of the booming industry. In addition to a precision agriculture concentration for agricultural engineering majors, CALS also offers an interdisciplinary precision agriculture certificate program.

“Precision agriculture is all about doing the right thing in the right place at the right time,” said Timothy Bradford, instructor in the CALS Department of Plant and Soil Sciences (PSS) who currently teaches precision agriculture-based classes. “When it comes to feeding nearly 10 billion people in the future, it is paramount that we start working now to become more efficient in what we’re doing. If we can maximize the potential of one plant in a field, imagine the impact we could have over a whole field.”

I know that scientific advancement in plant pathology will help reduce the deficit, and I want to help in any way that I can.

JEFF RE Y MANSOUR

Jeffrey Mansour, a graduate student in plant pathology and native of Greenville, is utilizing precision agriculture to monitor every aspect of his research project. As a recipient of the Monsanto Precision Agriculture Annual Scholarship, which benefits CALS students with an interest in precision agriculture, Mansour acknowledged that the award has helped alleviate financial difficulties and helped broaden his education by providing travel resources that enable him to observe other researchers and attend conferences.

“Across the world, we suffer an estimated $250 billion deficit in yield due to plant disease,” said Mansour. “I know that scientific advancement in plant pathology will help reduce that deficit and I want to help in any way that I can.”

From managing livestock herds, aquaculture ponds, bee colonies and greenhouses, to enhancing plant growth and forestry development, the advantages of precision technology extend to every aspect of the agricultural industry. The technology also contributes to reduced inputs and improved conservation practices through optimized rates and placements of chemical and biological applications.

Likewise, Mississippi State’s collaborative program attracts students from various areas of study, encouraging discussions on different perspectives and functions of the technology among the diverse groups. Bradford also explained that in learning to measure variability and conceptualize site-specific approaches, students studying precision agriculture gain a better understanding of the decision making process and the influence they can create.

“A lot of other universities have precision technology classes in remote sensing and geographic information systems, but they are primarily only offered for individual majors,” said Bradford. “Our program is bringing it all together by teaching a wide range of students how the practices fit in different places to meet different goals. The skills they learn in these classes will be tools they can apply throughout their lives.”

While precision technology encompasses many tools, unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) are some of the most widely used, and Mississippi State is well positioned at the forefront of this practice. MSU researchers have partnered with the United Stated Department of Agriculture (USDA) and other corporate entities to use UAS in precision agriculture for plant growth, nutrition management, irrigation and herbicide application.

Endowed chair holders Dan Reynolds (above) and Jac Varco (right) use their positions to further groundbreaking research.

GLOBALIZATION :

Moreover, MSU’s Alliance for System Safety of UAS through Research Excellence (ASSURE) was named in 2015 by the Federal Aviation Administration as the national Center of Excellence for Unmanned Aircraft Systems. Comprised of 22 of the world’s leading research institutions and 100 top industry and government partners, ASSURE is further supported by the university’s Global Research Institute (GRI), whose scientific team is quickly becoming one of the leading research authorities on UAS.

While technology seems to dominate the research field, the people behind it are just as important. MSU faculty members in CALS are contributing to global food security through research in topics ranging from biofuel feedstock and agricultural policy development, to food distribution systems and food-borne diseases.

Dan Reynolds, MSU PSS weed science professor and holder of the Edgar E. and Winifred B. Hartwig Endowed Chair in Soybean Agronomy, is among the trailblazing faculty researchers.

Extending his influence well beyond Mississippi, Reynolds is addressing food insecurity in Ghana with the use of research and demonstration farms.

“The five-year project will provide the science necessary to enable small-scale Ghanaian farmers to share in the rising demand for soybeans in Ghana,” said Reynolds. “The research will also enable low-resources countries to address problems of food insecurity and protein malnutrition.”

Prior to his Hartwig Chair appointment, Reynolds held the Dr. Glover B. Triplett Endowed Chair in Agronomy, a position that now belongs to Jac Varco, fellow PSS professor whose research is also helping to advance global food production. In studying crop nutrient utilization and developing conservation tillage systems, Varco is identifying more efficient and sustainable production practices.

Additionally, his efforts often rely on the use of advanced spatial technologies such as remote sensing for adequately implementing strategies at the field scale.

“The work we do as researchers contributes to the big picture by fine-tuning the system and current practices to make small but significant improvements,” said Varco, who recognizes the benefit students gain from working alongside faculty in advanced research projects. “The Triplett Chair not only enables me to continue expanding these university-based investigations, but also allows for the recruitment of highly-qualified graduate students motivated by the potential for developing systems that can improve agricultural production around the world.”

Further preparing graduates to lead future generations with a worldwide impact, CALS also offers a minor in international agriculture studies.

The minor will allow students to enhance their knowledge of the issue, the related technological impacts, and the various agricultural education systems around the world. In developing the

Food Security

skills needed in a global economy, students will be prepared to make decisions, communicate effectively and lead in a culturally diverse agricultural environment.

“For our students to be successful in agriculture today, it is critical that they have an understanding of the nature of the global marketplace, the interdependence of our global agricultural systems and the current issues related to food security,” said Susan Seal, assistant professor of international agricultural and extension education.

Mississippi State is pioneering solutions to feed the world. Upholding its partnership with the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) and a memorandum of understanding with the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), Mississippi State is committed to addressing worldwide hunger, as well as food safety and nutrition, environmental stability and other contributing factors.

Research efforts from land-grant institutions like Mississippi State lay the foundations that power solutions for mounting demands. However, the reach of the progress afforded by these institutions would be far less significant without the support of visionary leaders who share our mission. Together, we are pioneering new territories in the interdependent global food system and expanding the possibilities of adequate and efficient production for accessible, affordable and quality nutrition in an ever-growing world.

The Serengeti Lion Project is facilitating a greater awareness of the vulnerable species and enabling Mississippi State University students and faculty to contribute to international research for more effective conservation and management practices worldwide.

E

Established through Mississippi State University’s recent collaboration with the Tanzania Wildlife Research Institute and Serengeti National Park, the project operates under the College of Forest Resources’ Carnivore Ecology Laboratory, which is currently the largest working research unit of its kind in North America.

Using specialized tools including field cameras and GPS tracking collars, MSU researchers can better understand pride distribution and movement patterns.

Furthermore, the Serengeti Lion Project also seeks to explore the various external driving forces affecting the species. This integrated knowledge will enable Mississippi State to forecast future issues and changes in populations, build quality conservation programs and provide recommendations for similar cost effective surveys in lion range

areas throughout Africa.

Having successfully performed similar population survey techniques on North American carnivores, Jerry Belant, professor and director of the university’s Carnivore Ecology Laboratory, has been instrumental in implementing the international project at Mississippi State. In May 2016, Belant led an inaugural student team to the Serengeti National Park for a three-week mission to further identify the most effective methods for estimating and monitoring lion populations.

“This is a significant research opportunity for our university and our students as we work to identify and improve sustainable approaches to the delicate balance of human and wildlife coexistence,” said Belant, who was recently recognized as Mississippi State's newest Dale Arner Professor of Wildlife, Fisheries and Aquaculture.

Such international field-based research

makes students more marketable to employers and provides numerous intangible life skills.

The experience also exposes them to new cultures and further develops their selfconfidence and global awareness. Although the primary goal of the Serengeti Lion Project is to ensure the long-term persistence of healthy lion populations, the ensuing effects will have profound impacts on all walks of life in the universal balance with society and the environment.

Alumni, friends and corporations have an opportunity to support the Serengeti Lion Project and similar projects with gifts through the MSU Foundation. By investing in this work, donors will help contribute to an internationally recognized legacy devoted to the understanding and conservation of lion populations, their habitat and the communities that share their environment.

Water Conservation

As volunteers from the Mississippi State University chapter of Engineers Without

Borders-USA (EWB) step onto a largely rural and undeveloped stretch of African terrain, the severity of the region’s six-to-nine month dry season becomes reality. Despite enduring a 17-hour flight and being far removed from all the familiar amenities of home, contagious excitement fills the air. The chapter has returned once again, hopeful in their plans to aid the Simwatachela Chiefdom.

Since 2013, the students and mentors of MSU EWB have made annual trips to the chiefdom, located in southern Zambia, to address the region’s extreme water scarcity issue. These diligent efforts to engineer solutions have helped secure life-sustaining resources and a higher quality of life for the more than 300 villages within Simwatachela.

EWB-USA, a nonprofit organization established in 2002, supports community-driven development programs worldwide by collaborating with local partners to design and implement sustainable engineering projects. Professionals and students from a variety of fields including engineering, public health and business make up the growing membership. Currently, 286 EWB-USA chapters are engaged in nearly 700 projects in over 40 developing countries.

As a land-grant institution charged with serving the greater good, Mississippi State shares EWB’s mission to transform lives. MSU EWB is one of more than 180 campus-based chapters fostering unique educational opportunities and professional exposure for students. In addition to providing vital outreach efforts, MSU EWB is also helping to cultivate responsible leaders and a broadened global perspective.

“The fundamental role of an engineer in society is to be of service to others by protecting the health, safety and welfare of the public,” said MSU EWB faculty adviser Dennis Truax, head of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering. “As professionals, we can and should help at the local and state levels. However, we should also recognize our skills and their value to people around the world and facilitate opportunities that benefit the international community as well.”

Water Conservation

The availability of water changes every aspect of their lives and opportunities.

It’s hard for the community members to further themselves through education when they spend half their day or more walking for water.

EMI L Y FA R RA R

Following the project selection and initial assessment trip, MSU EWB has continued its mission to develop innovative solutions that fit within Simwatachela’s current technical and economic structure. Members of the organization, which is open to all students, collaborate throughout each academic year on potential plans to provide clean water. The strategies are then executed during the subsequent summer treks. Throughout the multiyear project, over 125 students have been involved—22 of which participated in one or more of the four total trips.

“The greatest lesson that MSU students gain from EWB is the sense that we can make a difference on a global level,” said Bill Mitchell, a 1975 MSU civil engineering alumnus who also serves as the university's EWB professional adviser.

In addition to assisting the team with tactical and physical undertakings, the Gulfport native also enabled the organization’s success by contributing significant support for project expenses. Although MSU EWB hosts annual fundraisers and requires

20 : Mississippi State University FO UN DAT I O N

each volunteer to help compensate for their individual participation, private support like Mitchell’s is essential to the on-site operations abroad, which can cost upward of $7,500 per well.

“Experiencing the critical need in the Simwatachela area convinced me to make a personal commitment to assist with the funding of this program,” said Mitchell, who was involved in MSU EWB’s primary assessment of the chiefdom.

“Hopefully, the story of our project will inspire other MSU alumni to support similar student projects. It has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my engineering career to help these villagers obtain access to clean water.”

Simwatachela’s extreme shortage of satisfactory water sources produces a multitude of issues, including forcing occupants to travel long distances while toting containers. Alternatively, many villages improvise with shallow, hand-dug reservoirs that collect water during the rainy season, few of which supply enough water to sustain local populations, much less agricultural production. When

the dry season befalls, the unlined pools become stagnant, disease-ridden pits contaminated further by rodents and livestock.

“The availability of water changes every aspect of their lives and opportunities,” said Emily Farrar, senior civil engineering major and former MSU EWB chapter president. “It is hard for the members of the community to further themselves through education when they spend half a day or more walking for water, or cannot receive a teacher due to the lack of a clean water source.”

Despite being faced with insufficient funding for its mission, MSU EWB was able to continue with its fourth and most recent trip in summer 2016 through the support of grant awards. Edging a Harvard University team and an Austin, Texasbased professional chapter to win the 2015 Penetron International EWB-USA Grant Award Contest, and later receiving an additional grant from the American Institute of Chemical Engineers, the MSU EWB chapter was able to garner enough support to sustain their efforts for the year.

There is a considerable world outside the U.S. and the potential impact we can have in improving the lives of others is significant.

MSU students uphold social responsibilities as they immerse themselves in culture.

GLOBALIZATION :

The team’s dedicated and impactful outreach was also credited when EWB-USA received the Engineering and Construction Contracting Association’s 2014 Spirit Award at a ceremony in Orlando, Florida. The presentation singled out the Mississippi State chapter, citing its project in Zambia as an example of work with far-reaching effects, but fraught with logistical challenges.

Collectively, MSU EWB’s ongoing project has resulted in the establishment of nine new and accessible hand-pump wells and the restoration of several existing, inoperable pumps. During the trips, teams also educated local villages on pump maintenance and water quality testing practices.

Additionally, the group’s work through the Simwatachela Sustainable Agriculture and Arts Program (SSAAP), a nonprofit organization that has supported youth and adult education programs in areas such as sports and hygiene, and has helped develop an animal husbandry program. These efforts are reinforcing the chiefdom’s capacity to sustainably meet its basic human needs for years to come.

“There is no recognition in this work,” said Truax, who holds the distinguished James T. White Chair, a position endowed by the 1961 civil engineering graduate for whom it is named. “Students don’t get class credit for their efforts or the time they put in— it’s just a desire to uphold our social responsibilities.”

The plagues of thirst and issues of malnutrition

and disease seemed like an inevitable way of life for the villages of Simwatachela. Today, however, the chiefdom is combating water scarcity and its related concerns thanks to the help of MSU EWB. As for the chapter participants, the impacts of the project have come full circle.

“This is a wonderful opportunity for students,” said Farrar, recognizing the benefits that she and other team members gained through their participation. “It is an enormous amount of responsibility and a challenging learning experience.”

Farrar has participated in two of the four annual trips to Zambia, serving as the 2016 project coordinator. The Pass Christian native credits scholarship support for much of her success. She is receiving the John Hosmer Scholarship in Engineering.

“I do not think I would have been able to participate in so much on campus and with EWB if it were not for the scholarships I’ve received,” Farrar said. “These gracious contributions provided a more affordable and enriching education.”

In addition to gaining real-world experience in the planning and designing processes of engineering projects, students also learn to work through the unexpected circumstances that can arise during on-site implementations. Furthermore, MSU EWB team members collaborate on written reports and national presentations of their work.

“As students are encouraged to go beyond what they consider to be their limitations, facing

Water Conservation

uncomfortable situations and learning to interact in and respect other cultures, they are able to reach goals that they will carry with them throughout their lives,” said Truax. “By realizing that they can excel in a number of environments by applying the skills they learned at MSU, students become ambassadors for our program and our university.”

Without MSU EWB’s collaborative efforts, the people of Simwatachela would continue to be faced with the threats of an unreliable water supply.

Instead, they are able to experience newfound hope through the newly secured sources for clean water, which also increase villages’ eligibility for additional government and humanitarian assistance.

More than water alone, the additional wells provide opportunities for progress.

“There is a considerable world outside the U.S., and the potential impact we can have in improving the lives of others is significant,” said Truax. “People need our help as engineers and as a country. Zambia isn’t the only place with a need—there is ultimately an endless need to continue our outreach.”

Making projects built to last requires investment, expertise and powerful partnerships.

While the accomplishments of MSU EWB largely rely on students and volunteers, such opportunities cannot exist without private support. Through the collective power of dedicated patrons, MSU has filled more than cups of water—it has filled communities with new life.

GLOBALIZATION :

One Health

Mississippi State's people continue at the forefront of worldwide medicine as they

explore the intersection of human, animal and environmental health. Their teaching, research and service endeavors translate as leading contributions to the effort known as the One Health movement.

One Health is a worldwide strategy for expanding interdisciplinary collaborations and communications in all aspects of healthcare. The initiative promotes three key components—connect, share and thrive—and these components are everpresent in teaching and research for all involved, including the faculty and students of the university’s College of Veterinary Medicine.

One faculty member in particular has a vested interest in the need for international veterinary medicine. Professor Margaret Khaitsa was born in East Africa and understands the need for One Health firsthand. She has a passion for bringing talented and motivated students to her homeland in Uganda through the study-abroad class she teaches at Mississippi State.

“In many ways, tropical veterinary medicine in Uganda is similar to rural veterinary practice in many states in the United States, including Mississippi,” said Khaitsa, professor of veterinary epidemiology with an international emphasis. Since she joined MSU in late 2013, Khaitsa has taught the college’s study-abroad class, bringing her own personal experiences into her lessons.

The study-abroad experience for CVM entails much more hands-on experience for the participants with Khaitsa as not only their classroom professor, but also their traveling companion. The students also have a period to accompany Khaitsa for a visit in the native village that was her birthplace.

“It is special to have my students see firsthand and understand my heritage—it put things into perspective for them. Throughout their Uganda experience, students witness the serious needs of animals and people, and they form an understanding of life in rural areas of the world,” said Khaitsa, who came to the United States in 1994.

Students gain their own success as they work alongside Khaitsa and William Epperson, professor and head of CVM’s Pathobiology and Population Medicine Department, Sherman (Skip) Jack and Robert Wills, also professors in that same department, and other respected faculty at Mississippi State University.

“As tomorrow’s global citizens, we want our students to understand, appreciate and experience tropical animal production, food safety and public health from a global perspective,” Khaitsa said. “The CVM study abroad course at MSU helps establish an open-minded, world-class, broadly inclusive, and globally engaged science workforce.”

Interest in global veterinary medicine experiences among students increases every year at Mississippi State, and CVM is committed to providing the best learning experiences for students beyond the traditional classroom and laboratory. England, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras and Scotland are just a few of the destinations on the travel agenda for veterinary students.

The most recent group to accompany Khaitsa to Uganda included five DVM students—Will Alexander, Rachel Mayfield, Laken Russell, Ryan Taylor and Robert Stenger, along with Anika Eidson, an animal and dairy sciences major.

These students worked alongside their peers and faculty members from Makerere University in Uganda, during the third consecutive annual Khaitsa-led excursion since she began the class.

During their time in Uganda, the group volunteered with Veterinarians Without Borders. Through this association, animal vaccination and public education about zoonotic

diseases are a high priority focus in East and Central Africa, where people and animals live in close proximity.

“Uganda is one of the countries with the highest consumption of pigs, sheep and goats in Africa, and the veterinary services in the country are very poor, making the work and studies of CVM students into beneficial contributions of service to veterinarians and scientists in Africa,” said Khaitsa.

While in Africa, the students collected samples from animals and administered a questionnaire to animal owners.

They trapped Tsetse flies and captured birds and bled them to test for and track diseases such as Trypanosomiasis, an infectious disease in both humans and animals. The group visited Queen Elizabeth National Park, Lake Mburo National Park and Kibale National Park, where they also took vitals on members of the lion populations.

The group of CVM students also participated in a radio call-in program from a village in Soroti to educate people about Brucellosis, a bacterial disease that can infect goats, pigs, sheep and cattle. Humans can contract the disease by consuming undercooked meat or unpasteurized dairy products from infected animals.

“We had many chances to help educate the native people about how wildlife may play a role in transferring diseases between humans and animals,” said fourth-year DVM student Ryan Taylor of Cleveland, who has studied abroad during two stints in Uganda. After graduation in May 2017, he hopes to continue his MSU studies by pursuing a graduate degree in veterinary medical science with a concentration in infectious diseases.

More travel awards are needed to assist students like Mayfield and Taylor as they work alongside MSU faculty to explore the intersection of global medicine. Traveling across borders does not come without financial burden. Typical costs for each student range from $1,500 upward to $8,000 or more.

Every day, CVM dean Kent Hoblet and his wife, Connie, hear stories from students, making them more aware of the debt that most incur. By way of the couple's Hoblet Family International Education Travel Endowment, students receive partial funding for hands-on veterinary

For most veterinary students, global experiences are only possible with grants from Mississippi State’s International Institute and individual travel funds provided by alumni and friends through the Infinite Impact campaign. One such fund in particular is the Pegasus Partners, which was established by donors seeking to grow an endowment for continued international efforts.

Students may also gain assistance from the Paul Eggert International Education Travel Fund established by Diane Eggert in memory of her late husband. Paul Eggert had a longtime career with the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, and the travel fund salutes his life's work. He traveled to Asia, Africa and Europe to establish good working relations in the fair and safe trade of fruit, vegetables and wood products.

Additionally, the Paul Farmer Memorial and Nutramax Laboratories Student Travel Fund supports students who want to pursue domestic and international travel to promote the practice of veterinary medicine. Dr. Todd R. Henderson, president and CEO of Nutramax Laboratories Veterinary Sciences Inc. and a 1992 CVM graduate, created the fund dedicated to his late MSU classmate, Dr. Paul W. Farmer.

One of the first recipients of the Paul Farmer

One Health

Memorial and Nutramax Laboratories Student Travel Fund was Mayfield. In 2015, she traveled to Haiti and assisted Christian Veterinary Fellowship members as they treated nearly 1,500 animals in four days.

The students gained surgical experience, worked with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention rabies control program, and they helped educate the local people about the care of their animals. The experience was educational and rewarding, and made possible only with the generous gift.

“Through scholarships and grants and the help of amazing faculty and staff as guides, my aspirations can lead me to improve veterinary care and agricultural education in underdeveloped countries,” said Mayfield.

Mississippi State veterinary students are enthusiastic about traveling abroad to expand their veterinary experience, enhance their leadership skills and teach others, all while helping people and animals in need. Because of dedicated faculty members, like Khaitsa, MSU students will continue learning across the world, and contributions for Infinite Impact can motivate them toward an international path as graduates of one of the emerging, premier colleges of veterinary medicine in the United States.

Engineering Abroad

The Mississippi State University James Worth Bagley College of Engineering is enabling students to become more globally versed in their respective fields through the collaborative Engineering Education and Research Partnership with Moroccan-based Université Internationale de Rabat (UIR).

T

The partnership between the two universities places both institutions on the cusp of groundbreaking endeavors as Mississippi State collaborates with the UIR Schools of Automotive and Aerospace Engineering in Morocco. Benefits of the partnership are multifold as it provides students with research and academic opportunities while encouraging them to study abroad.

The dual academic-award program will allow UIR students to earn a diploma of engineering from their home institution, as well as bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Mississippi State. Delivering curricula for degrees in mechanical, computational, aerospace and automotive engineering, the five-year program involves four years of study at the students’ primary campus in Morocco and one year abroad at Mississippi State.

While the exchange allows students to learn from and work with Mississippi State’s top-notch faculty and researchers amid worldclass facilities, it also cultivates an enhanced global experience as students engage in the unique atmosphere and rich traditions of Mississippi State. Graduate and undergraduate students at Mississippi State are also encouraged to participate in the opportunity by studying abroad at the UIR campus.

Through the program, students gain a more comprehensive understanding of their prospective fields and are able to make valuable connections to benefit both their personal and professional development.

Additionally, the collaboration presents opportunities for emerging scholars to network with international industries for potential future employment.

“This partnership is providing valuable opportunities for progress as Mississippi State

and UIR work together to enable solutions for citizens in our individual regions and across the globe,” said Jason Keith, dean of the Bagley College and holder of the Earnest W. and Mary Ann Deavenport Chair.

Achievements empowered through the Engineering Education and Research Partnership will inspire new generations of leaders to promote a more united global community. These efforts are essential in Mississippi State’s endeavors to stimulate environments of inclusiveness and improve the quality of life worldwide.

Opportunities to support the work of Mississippi State University with international partners are possible with gifts through the MSU Foundation. Our university can instill a desire to learn in students with diverse backgrounds and cultivate that desire by offering them new paths of education worldwide.

Study Abroad

Mississippi State University can grow great minds with the world as an extended classroom

for its students. A chance to study and learn in countries outside the United States is enhancing and enriching the academic journey for many of the university’s top students beyond their daily campus curriculum. From global economic development and scientific exploration to cybersecurity, students are exploring a world of possibilities through learning experiences abroad every day.

Overall, some 350 students annually study abroad while enrolled at Mississippi State. Preferred destinations for students include The Bahamas, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom.

Study abroad is not limited to any particular college or school because of Mississippi State’s desire to engage students in yet another phase of experience with other societies and cultures through the university’s International Institute for global engagement and development activities.

Mississippi State students are crossing the equator and experiencing life in other countries—from landscape architecture students studying in the Netherlands and Europe to poultry science students traveling to New Zealand. In particular, College of Architecture, Art and Design students are venturing outside the classroom and studios to learn about life, architecture and art in other countries as they expand their knowledge of architecture and design with worldwide examples.

Gifts through Infinite Impact are enabling many more students to have experiences on a global front. Campaign gifts can support scholarships for students to attend MSU and provide them with travel funds for prime opportunities to learn alongside esteemed faculty members who participate in international travel and residence programs. These students and faculty are then able to bring new knowledge back to the classroom and laboratories to share, thus moving Mississippi State forward as a whole in many disciplines.

STUDY ABROAD: Judy and Bobby Shackouls Honors College An exceptional honors curriculum in the Judy and Bobby Shackouls Honors College must have study abroad opportunities for its high-achieving students. One way the honors college has worked to help students gain a more global perspective is through the Shackouls Summer Study program that enables talented students to attend one of the world’s foremost colleges.

Between 10 and 15 Bulldogs annually become “associate” students at some of England’s best colleges, including Christ Church College, New College and Trinity College. These students utilize travel funds available to them through the Shackouls Honors College and Mississippi State’s International Institute for their time abroad.

Karleigh Kimbrell was among the group who journeyed to England in summer 2016 from Mississippi as a Shackouls scholar.

For Kimbrell, studying at Christ Church College at the University of Oxford was the experience of a lifetime. A junior English major and history minor of Pontotoc, she receives an Ottilie Schillig Leadership Award as part of the prestigious Presidential Scholars program, which provides four-year scholarships.

“I’m definitely excited to have had that opportunity to study abroad and I have the Shackouls Honors College to thank for that,” said Kimbrell. “Mississippi State is my dream school and being part of the Presidential Scholars has meant so much to me because my scholarship is truly a gift.”

A

Currently, each honor student who chooses to study abroad like Kimbrell receives a $1,500 travel scholarship to assist with costs. Additional gifts through Infinite Impact can help the Shackouls Honors College reach new heights with endowment opportunities for the study abroad program that would make it more affordable for students.

Outside of the classroom, Kimbrell saw A Midsummer Night’s Dream at the Globe Theatre and Les Miserables at the Queens Theatre, visited Hampton Court, the Bath Cathedral and Blenheim Palace. Following graduation, she plans to earn her English Ph.D. in American Literature and teach at a small liberal arts institution.

Students like Kimbrell are taking advantage of a true honors education at Mississippi State as they develop skills in critical thinking and engaging other students and faculty in discussion of the formative ideas, arts and cultures of the world. In doing so, these scholars gain preparation for esteemed graduate programs and for distinguished external scholarships like the Rhodes, the Marshall and the Truman.

International education opportunities like the Shackouls Summer Study program can help students find employment after graduation. Employers often look not only at a college graduate’s degree and grade-point average; they examine the “value-added” experiences an individual has had. It is often those extra experiences that make for better-rounded employees with a broader scope of life lessons learned.

I’m definitely excited to have had the opportunity to study abroad, and I have Shackouls Honors College to thank for that.

Study Abroad

STUDY ABROAD: College of Business The hallmark of the International Business program in the College of Business is its emphasis on real cross-cultural immersion, both academically and in a real-world business context. Students earning degrees in international business pursue careers both internationally and nationally, working in such areas as international trade and logistics, global marketing, cross-cultural management and international finance.

Two students who have benefited from the study abroad program in the College of Business are seniors Josh Bedi and Patricia "Patty" Sloan. As future graduates of the International Business Program, both students will receive two degrees in May 2017, a Bachelor of Business Administration and a Bachelor of Arts, each designed to cover a separate aspect of living and working internationally.

Ocean Springs resident Sloan is specifically pursuing a bachelor’s degree in finance with concentrations in international business and risk management and insurance. During the spring 2015 semester, Sloan studied in Spain at La Universidad de Salamanca, the oldest university in Spain, by way of a scholarship through the MSU Study Abroad office, where most programs offer MSU degree credit.

T

Although Sloan has studied Spanish for nearly a decade in the United States, she believes her command of the language grew tremendously over her four-month stay in Spain. She chose Salamanca “because it is said the people there speak the purest form of Castilian Spanish.”

As a premier city in Spain, Salamanca offered beautiful architecture and history for Sloan to observe. While studying in Europe, she visited France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland and Portugal, and she also boarded a Mediterranean cruise.

“Studying abroad presents great challenges, enabling you to return a better and stronger person,” said Sloan. Once her studies are complete, Sloan believes she would be just as comfortable working in a foreign country as the United States because of her study abroad experience and her pending degree in Spanish. She hopes to work in the area of internal audit because it offers exposure to the many different functional areas of a company and will afford her additional travel.

Along with Sloan, Bedi also centered his choice of countries for study abroad on the importance of learning a language. He believes mastering a language helps to fully integrate a student into another country’s culture.

Two years ago, Bedi studied abroad in Germany

at Die Neue Schule for five weeks, and his second stint in Germany doubled that time. In 2016, he traveled to Berlin and studied at the University of Duisburg-Essen. For the first few weeks, Bedi took language classes and then began a 9-to-5 corporate internship, where he spoke German with his colleagues.

During his first trip, Bedi visited a castle in Essen, spent several days in Berlin, visited a coal-mining museum in an industrial part of Germany and visited the Netherlands. His second intern experience also was spent in Germany, where he toured museums, attended an opera and visited Prague.

Bedi, who receives the Joe G. Rice Jr. Loyalty Scholarship, will earn a dual degree in economics and German. His time in Germany inspired him to consider graduate school in that country with a goal to earn his Ph.D. in economics. He believes abroad experiences are all inspiring and unique, depending on the country visited.

“Study abroad trips are eye opening and allow you to see different perspectives,” said Bedi of Brandon. “Mississippi State students should take advantage of all of the opportunities available to become integrated into the language and the culture, because it is that time invested that can be life changing.”

STUDY ABROAD: James Worth Bagley College of Engineering An integrated global economy means engineers must understand other cultures and ways of doing business as part of collaborations that span the globe. With the generosity of companies like Chevron and alumni and Mississippi natives Fred and Sara Jean Burke, the James Worth Bagley College of Engineering offers special competitive scholarships to help offset the costs associated with studying abroad for engineering students.

Chevron generously funds summer programs for engineering students, while the Fred and Sara Jean Burke Engineering Study Abroad Program is a semester-long venture. An endowment created by the Burkes financially assists young people in experiencing a different place and culture.

Mississippi State has a long-term relationship with Politechnico di Torino, Italy, and the Bagley College sends students there every semester. In spring 2016, Miandra Maiers of Starkville was one of five MSU students studying there, and she developed a great appreciation for the Burke Study Abroad scholarship.

The competitive Burke awards typically furnish $5,000 per study abroad excursion. Of that amount, Maiers paid plane fare and housing, with a small portion remaining for living expenses.

While enrolled for a six-month semester in Italy at Politechnico di Torino, Maiers took a foreign language, advanced mechanics, manufacturing processes and safety courses, among others. Beyond classes, she toured Torino, gaining an appreciation for its historical and cultural significance.

Maiers believes studying abroad enables growth of an individual. “After completing a study abroad program, you have a lot of confidence since you’re in a new place and must be self-sufficient,” said Maiers, who plans to pursue her MBA at Mississippi State before exploring international opportunities.

Maiers, who was in Italy during a United States election period, was able to gain perspectives on politics and religion from other international students. She said, “It was interesting to see a lot of different cultures all in one place and experience the energy that came from that melting pot of ideas.”

Maiers is in her fifth year at MSU, studying industrial engineering by way of private scholarships.

She has co-oped with Caterpillar in the Mississippi towns of Booneville and Corinth. She remains interested in robotics as she nears graduation in May 2017 and hopes for a career in management.

Fellow engineering student Brandon Baxter studied at Munich University of Applied Sciences in Germany as an exchange student. He will graduate

from Mississippi State in May 2017 with a bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering and hopes to pursue an international career.

“I gained confidence—having to live, learn and navigate life in Germany since as an exchange student I spent a greater time in the country than most study abroad students,” said Baxter, who is from Hattiesburg. “The Burke award was the difference between just trying to survive and really experiencing Germany.”

Studying abroad was life altering for Baxter.

Along with spending seven months abroad, he has had three internships during his time at Mississippi State University. He hopes to use the experience and skills he has developed through interning and studying abroad to begin a globally focused career. Baxter is exploring a master’s program at another Munich university, where he hopes to pursue management for technical students with an international, entrepreneurial focus.

Since the Fred and Sara Jean Burke Engineering Study Abroad Program’s inception, 45 MSU engineering students have participated in transformative study abroad experiences. The endowment will perpetually enable many more curious and talented students to follow their dreams of international study in the years to come.

It was interesting to see a lot of different cultures all in one place, and experience the energy that came from that melting pot of ideas.

STUDY ABROAD: Coming to America as Bulldogs Mississippi State is not only an institution important to its region and nation, but also to an increasing number of countries who are turning to the university because of its growing reputation. In particular, international students journey to Mississippi State to learn and research with top-caliber faculty members from across the United States and other countries.

International students seek their futures as Bulldogs and are exposed to American culture. These students primarily come from Brazil, China, India, Iran and Nepal, but represent over 70 countries. Of the university’s more than 21,600-student population, the international portion of the student body totals a little over four percent. And, this includes student athletes who bring their talents and desire to compete on and off the field to our university.

International students are living and learning at Mississippi State, and scholarships through the Infinite Impact campaign are helping make this possible. Once on campus, international students pursue many degree fields, with the most popular being electrical and computer engineering, chemistry, computer science and business administration.

Upon completion of their degrees, many of these Bulldogs return to their home countries where they share their newly acquired knowledge and their passion for Mississippi State University as graduates of our revered land-grant institution.

Mississippi State University is on the cusp of groundbreaking endeavors that will

positively alter life for humankind. Our progress is inevitable as private gifts help make our institution unstoppable in its quest to become one of the leading education and research universities in the nation.

Infinite Impact: The Mississippi State University Campaign provides an infusion of gifts to further the university’s advancement toward national prominence. With campaign gifts, contributors inspire others to give and teach future generations to share the spirit of philanthropy with their fellowmen. These gifts go to the very heart of Mississippi State—to the very core of what makes this university not only sustain itself, but also withstand challenges over time and flourish along the way.

Infinite Impact has a larger goal beyond dollars. For all those individuals, corporations and foundations that desire to help our world as it faces new challenges, there is a place for their contributions to begin an impact through Mississippi State in the areas that matter most to them. Gifts from loyal supporters are imperative to elevate the progress of our institution and assist a rising generation with great strides in health, education, natural resources, technology and much more—and ensure these efforts are shared globally.

I

Mississippi State embraces its growing global footprint daily. Life-changing experiences start here, and contributors are a part of each step taken for the preservation and betterment of mankind.

Mississippi State can light every corner of the world with new knowledge and new experiences because of contributions for a better tomorrow.

At Mississippi State, each individual contributor can help us eclipse the success initially foreseen for Infinite Impact as we pursue a plateau of one billion dollars in private gifts for our institution.

Some gifts for the campaign will create a steady stream of annual support and help fund university priorities, while others will become gifts for the future, growing endowments that will strengthen Mississippi State University as a whole.

In the midst of Infinite Impact, Mississippi State is expanding our endeavors beyond Mississippi and exploring more opportunities for our students to shape the world of the future. Infinite Impact gifts are providing an exceptional experience for today’s students, while ensuring more to come can follow their dreams to Mississippi State. Once on campus,

these young people will have access to the kind of education, inspiration and open doors needed to find their place in the world, whatever and wherever that might be. We are better preparing them to become responsible citizens and global leaders of tomorrow.

As we pursue Infinite Impact, the people of Mississippi State hope that you embrace our quest in moving this university and our state forward. Just as many contributors have done through the years, you too can join us in many ways.

One billion begins with one, and you can be the one contributor who ignites an impact that is limitless and spreads far and wide. Infinite possibilities begin with a single step, a single discovery, a single accomplishment, a single goal, and often with a single contribution.

From Mississippi State’s early success of Infinite Impact, our expectations and your involvement help us continue to gain momentum. Together, our efforts and passion can help bring a better quality of life to people across the world.
