MEET Dickinson

The "Western Edge of ND", Dickinson

is your base to the Theodore Roosevelt National Park South Unit, and home to Dickinson State University. This thriving community has grown rapidly in recent years. It is big enough to offer plenty of city amenities, but still small enough for that friendly hometown feeling.

JOB OPPORTUNITIES

Especially in recent years, the economic growth in Dickinson has been driven by the enormous Bakken oil field which makes North Dakota one of the largest petroleum producing states in the U.S. With a strong local economy, there are many different career opportunities, not only in energy production, but also in healthcare, education, manufacturing, engineering, hospitality and retail.
