二、气候条件
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出国留学的目的地!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。
三、蒙大拿州的顶尖大学
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 radio station.Research conducted on the vast Yellowstone National Park has led to university being billed ‘The University of Yellowstone’.
在2011年的QS世界大学排名中，蒙大拿州的大学都没有上榜。然而，这并不意味着这个周的的大学教学质量差。两个最著名的大学是它的两所公立大学，蒙大拿大学和蒙大拿州立大学。前者位于该州的第二大城市米苏拉，总共有15500名学生，大部分是本科生。它由五所学院和三所学校组成，是全国最具生产力的林业研究大学之一。到目前为止，艺术与科学学院的招生人数最多。它的校园被滚石杂志称为美国最美丽的风景。
蒙大拿州立大学位于波兹曼，是该州的赠地大学。它为14000名学生提供服务，大部分是在本科阶段，提供51度的学位。硕士学位有41个学科，博士学位是18个。洛矶山博物馆是世界上最大的霸王龙头骨的所在地，坐落在大学的校园里，国家公共电视广播网和当地一家广播电台的总部也是如此。在巨大的黄石国家公园进行的研究导致大学被宣传为“黄石大学”。
