There are over 200 undergraduate and over 80 graduate programmes in all, including over 30 online degrees. OSU has 12 colleges, 15 agricultural experiment stations, 35 county extension offices, the Marine Sciences centre in Newport and OSU-Cascades, located in the city of Bend.

The student population is 83% undergraduates, 15% graduates and 2% professionals; around 60% of students are Oregon residents.
