GENERAL INFORMATION HISTORY Ferris State University is recognized for its career-focused majors that give our students the education they need to meet the needs of a changing economy. Founded in 1884 on the concept of providing students with marketable skills, Ferris was established by Woodbridge N. Ferris (1853-1928), a distinguished Michigan educator and politician who served two terms as the state's governor and was elected a United States Senator. Ferris was a private institute until 1950, when it joined the state higher education system. The college obtained university status in 1987. LOCATION The Ferris State University campus is located in Big Rapids, a west central Michigan city of approximately 10,600 in the vacation-recreation region. In addition to being home of Ferris State University, Big Rapids is the county seat of Mecosta County. The 880-acre campus is readily accessible by the US-131 expressway and state highway M-20. Big Rapids is 55 miles north of Grand Rapids and within 200 miles of Chicago and Detroit.
