The Act had formally established the university in [[Marawi City]] on September 1, 1961. It is one of the [[List of universities in the Philippines|state universities]] of the [[Philippines]] with the aim of providing education for the different strategic locations across the island of [[Mindanao]]. The campus was later expanded to a multi-campus university system now composed of ten autonomous campuses: '''MSU-Main Campus''', '''[[Mindanao State University - Iligan Institute of Technology|MSU-IIT]] (CHED Center of Excellence in Science and Technology)''', '''MSU-General Santos''', '''MSU-Sulu''', '''MSU-Maguindanao''', '''MSU-Naawan''', '''MSU-Tawi-Tawi''', and '''MSU-Buug'''. The MSU is the only state university in the Philippines with the special mandate of integrating the cultural communities in Mindanao into the mainstream of the nation's [[Culture of the Philippines|socio-cultural]] and political life by providing them with opportunities for quality and relevant public education for their self-development and providing trained manpower skills and technical know-how for the economic development of the region. Its mission is to attain peace and sustainable development in the '''MINSUPALA''' (Mindanao-Sulu-Palawan) region, setting the standards of excellence in [[science]], [[art]]s, [[technology]], and other fields; accelerating the economic, cultural, socio-political, and agro-industrial development of the [[Muslim]] and other cultural groups, thereby facilitating their integration into the national community; preserving and promoting the rich cultural heritage of the region and conserving its rich natural resources. ==Mindanao State University System== '''[[Mindanao State University System|MSU System]]''' is the only university in the Philippines with a special mandate of integrating the cultural communities, specially the Muslims into the mainstream of the nation's socio-cultural and political life by providing them with opportunities for quality and relevant public education for their self development and providing trained manpower skills and technical know-how for the economic development of the Mindanao, Sulu (Basilan and Tawi-Tawi) and Palawan region. On September 5, 2007, Dr. Macapado A. Muslim was appointed by President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo to be the University President of MSU. He was chosen by Mrs. Arroyo despite of having several pending administrative charges filed against him, two of which were Technical Malversation of Public Funds, and illegal termination of some faculty members. Nonetheless, Dr. Muslim has four remaining years in his term to prove that his appointment was a good move made by the president of the Republic. ===First computer lab for teacher training=== The Foundation for Information Technology Education and Development (FIT-ED), with World Links, installed on May, 2008, the first computer laboratory at the Mindanao State University-Iligan Institute of Technology (MSU-IIT), with 11 networked computers and broadband Internet access, for in-service and pre-service teachers.<ref>[http://www.gmanews.tv/story/98079/First-computer-lab-for-teacher-training-launched-in-Mindanao-State-U www.gmanews.tv, First computer lab for teacher training launched in Mindanao State U]</ref> ==Courses Offered== The MSU-Marawi strives to be a premier supraregional university geared towards the agro-industrial, ecological, socio-economic and political development of Mindanao.

The three rays on top stand for the Mindanao, Sulu and Palawan (MINSUPALA) regions which were the main thrust of MSU at its inception. The lamp in the middle signifies the light with which to guide the people in their quest for knowledge. Finally the fish and the okir symbols around the lamp along with the color scheme represent the unique and impressive culture of the [[Maranao]]s in the area surrounding MSU. ==Hymn== ===Filipino/Tagalog: "Himno ng Pamantasang Mindanao"=== <small>Music by Lucio San Pedro; Lyrics by Angelito Flores </small> <i>Silahis ang katulad mong <br> Nagsabog ng liwanag, <br> Ng pag-asa't hangarin <br> Ng pag-unlad </i> <i>Ang pook ng Mindanao <br> Tinanglaw't pinalad, <br> Nang ikaw'y isilang <br> Na dakila ang hangad. </i> <i>Ating ipagkapuri <br> Itong pamantasan <br> Ang buhay at pag-ibig, <br> Sa kanya'y iaalay </i> <i>Saan man naroon ay <br> Bigyang karangalan, <br> Dakilang paaralan <br> Pamantasang Mindanao. </i> ==Administration== *'''MACAPADO ABATON MUSLIM, Ph.D.''' President of MSU System *'''DATUMANONG A.
