The University of Maryland, College Park, the state’s flagship university, is committed to reimagining teaching and learning, advancing the public good, investing in people and communities, and taking on humanity’s grand challenges.

　　As the only public research university inside Washington, D.C.’s Beltway, UMD gives students unparalleled opportunities inside the classroom and beyond the campus. UMD students can intern or conduct research at nearby federal agencies, labs and cultural centers such as NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the Smithsonian Institution. The forthcoming Purple Line mass transit system, with five stops on or around campus, will further connect UMD to all the region has to offer. The light-rail line will also expand the success of the Greater College Park initiative, a $2 billion public-private investment to revitalize the community around the university, develop a robust Discovery District and create one of the nation’s best college towns.

　　Undergraduates at Maryland can select from nearly 280 academic programs or create their own major. UMD also provides more than 25 living-learning environments, which attract half of all first-year students. Among them, the Honors College challenges the most talented students in small seminars, while the highly regarded College Park Scholars program engages students and faculty in enriching learning opportunities beyond the classroom around a variety of topics. Maryland prepares students for civic engagement and impact through more than 400 study abroad programs.

　　As the nation’s first Do Good campus, UMD offers unique and ambitious courses, fellowships, certificate programs and coaching to support social entrepreneurship and students looking to make an impact across the globe.

　　The University of Maryland fosters an inclusive environment where all 50,000 members of our community know that they belong and are empowered to reach their full potential, a vision known as TerrapinSTRONG. It includes an onboarding program for all students and employees that celebrates diversity and promotes connection on campus. The university is also investing $40 million in recruiting and retaining faculty who have been historically underrepresented in their fields, and building cultural spaces and naming buildings for those who opened doors and broke barriers. In addition, the new Arts for All initiative aims to ensure equitable access to the arts and leverages the power of the arts, technology and social justice to address the grand challenges of our time, including racism, climate change, the refugee crisis and threats to democracy.

　　UMD’s faculty includes two Nobel laureates, six Pulitzer Prize winners and 61 members of the national academies, who provide leadership in pivotal fields such as quantum science, climate change and national security. Collaborations with the University of Maryland, Baltimore through a strategic partnership called Mpowering the State also boost educational opportunities, research and combined degree programs.

　　马里兰大学学院公园分校，作为该州的旗舰大学，致力于重新构想教学与学习，推动公共利益，投资于人与社区，并迎接人类的重大挑战。

　　作为华盛顿特区环城公路内唯一的公立研究型大学，UMD 为学生提供了课堂内外无与伦比的机会。UMD 学生可以在附近的联邦机构、实验室和文化中心实习或进行研究，如 NASA 戈达德航天飞行中心、国家标准与技术研究院和史密森学会。即将启用的紫线公共交通系统将在校园内外设有五个站点，进一步将 UMD 与该地区的一切联系起来。这条轻轨线路还将扩大大学院公园计划的成功，这是一项 20 亿美元的公私合营投资，旨在振兴大学周边社区，发展强健的探索区，打造全国最优秀的大学城之一。

　　马里兰的本科生可以从近280个学术项目中选择，或自行创建专业。马里兰大学还提供25个以上的生活学习环境，吸引了一半的一年级学生。其中，荣誉学院通过小型研讨课挑战最有才华的学生，而备受推崇的学院公园学者项目则激励学生和教师，丰富课堂外的学习机会，涵盖多样主题。马里兰通过400多个海外学习项目，培养学生参与公民参与和产生影响。

　　作为美国首个做好事校园，UMD 提供独特且富有抱负的课程、奖学金、证书项目和辅导，支持社会创业和希望在全球产生影响的学生。

　　马里兰大学营造了一个包容的环境，让我们社区的 5 万名成员都知道自己属于这里，并被赋能发挥全部潜力，这一愿景被称为 TerrapinSTRONG。它包括面向所有学生和员工的入职培训项目，庆祝多样性并促进校园内的联系。大学还投入 4000 万美元，招募和留住历来在各自领域代表性不足的教师，建设文化空间，为那些开启大门、打破障碍的人命名建筑。此外，新的“全民艺术”倡议旨在确保艺术的公平获取，利用艺术、技术和社会正义的力量应对当代重大挑战，包括种族主义、气候变化、难民危机和民主威胁。

　　马里兰大学的教师团队包括两位诺贝尔奖得主、六位普利策奖得主以及61位国家科学院院士，他们在量子科学、气候变化和国家安全等关键领域发挥领导作用。与马里兰大学巴尔的摩分校通过“赋能州”战略合作伙伴关系的合作，也促进了教育机会、科研和联合学位项目的发展。
