Since 1947, University of Maryland University College (UMUC) has pursued one primary mission: to make higher education more accessible, convenient, and rewarding for busy adults. A pioneer in adult and distance learning, UMUC offered its first distance education course 30 years ago. Today, more than 88,000 men and women on six continents are pursuing their education goals at UMUC.

UMUC offers more than 80 online degree and certificate programs, each designed to offer you a challenging educational experience with maximum flexibility. You can access your UMUC courses from any location in the world and participate in class activities when it’s convenient for you, rather than at a specific time of day.
