St. Cloud State University has published course catalogs since 1869. The course catalog tells the reader about the university itself. This includes academic programs and classes, students services, campus buildings, student services available, general regulations, organization of the university, and faculty and administrators.

Over time, St. Cloud State has published three different course catalogs: undergraduate, graduate, and summer. The last printed course catalog appeared in 2010. Since then, the course catalog has been exported from curriculum management systems.
