GRAND FORKS (AP) — The University of North Dakota says it’s working on partnerships with two-year colleges in North Dakota and Minnesota.

UND said it wants to develop what it calls a “hometown university” in which students can earn degrees from UND while they live and work in their own communities.

UND already has an office on the Bismarck State College campus. In Devils Lake, it plans to hire a full-time staff member to be on the Lake Region State College campus.

A Tuesday afternoon open house was scheduled at Lake Region for Devils Lake-area residents interested in UND’s online MBA program.
