Hit the Ground Running (HGR) is an exciting three-week summer learning program held July 11- July 31 for incoming first-year students. HGR students will gain three course credit hours as they sharpen their critical foundation skills in mathematics, chemistry, English, and student success. Through classroom education and evening activities, students will gain a positive head start in their college careers.

During HGR, students will meet with campus department leaders, engage with faculty, and make meaningful connections with mentors and fellow first-year students. While living on-campus and participating in leadership building activities, HGR students gain a deeper sense of comfort on-campus, with their peers, and with the academic skills needed to be successful at Missouri S&T.

Hit the Ground Running provides a valuable opportunity for incoming Miners. For more information or to register, please visit academicsupport.mst.edu/hgr/ or contact Rachel Morris at rachelm@mst.edu.
