Recognizing Excellence Across Our University
The University of Maryland is once again ranked among the top 20 public universities in the nation, coming in at No. 17 in U.S. News & World Report's Best Colleges rankings, one of many measures this year that reflect the strength of a Maryland education. Rankings are one way of measuring our progress, but they are ultimately a reflection of the people and work behind them.
Our university gives us so many reasons to be proud. Internationally-ranked academic programs. Amazing artists and groundbreaking researchers. Award-winning faculty. Extraordinary and caring staff. Together, we are channeling our collective excellence to take on the grand challenges of our time.
