Towson University

Founded in 1866, Towson University is part of the prestigious University System of Maryland and recognized among the nation's top 100 public universities. With more than 23,000 students, Towson University is among the largest public universities in Maryland, and the fastest-growing. In addition to offering more than 100 bachelor's, master's and doctoral degree programs, with a wide scope of challenging and relevant programs, TU is a diverse, welcoming campus community for living and learning, where you'll fit in while standing out. A lot of institutions talk opportunity. But ensuring students engage, explore, persist and succeed requires more than talk. At TU, we create opportunity where it doesn't exist. We stay agile to meet the demands of a changing world. We connect students to industry experts and passionate mentors in intimate learning environments. Located eight miles north of Baltimore, our beautiful, 329-acre campus offers numerous academic resources and a diverse campus life. TU's proximity to one of America's most vibrant metropolitan areas means countless opportunities for internships, community outreach, multicultural experiences and learning experiences. We also cultivate and maintain strong partnerships with public and private organizations throughout the region to provide students with unique access to research, internships, and jobs. TU never stops creating opportunities – which is why our students are prepared, no matter what. What possibilities will you discover?
