Maryland Colleges, Universities, and
Schools
Whether you choose life on a university
campus in Maryland or you attend one of the many technical schools in Maryland's
famed technology corridor, your education possibilities in Maryland are numerous.
In addition to the fine education offered at the colleges and universities in Maryland,
the state also is known for its beauty and its wealth of history. The poem that was
adapted into the American national anthem was written while its author observed a
raging battle at Fort McHenry. Abolitionist John Brown made his famous raid against
slavery at Maryland's Harpers Ferry. Chesapeake Bay, Maryland's opening to the Atlantic
Ocean is the source of a rich variety of seafood and also home to one of the country's
busiest seaports. Maryland, one of the original colonies that coalesced into the
United States, offers a great array of culture as well as ample outdoors activities.
Maryland's gentle weather gives lots of incentive to enjoy the outdoors offerings.
The famous Appalachian trail, a favorite for hikers from all over the world, runs
through Maryland. Of course, part of your education in Maryland will be the closeness
of the nation's capital. In fact, many residents of Maryland commute daily to their
workplaces in Washington, D.C.
A good high school education, followed by a college degree, is essential for career
advancement these days. Competition for jobs is fierce and even most manual jobs
now require a certification providing skill and experience.
Jobs requiring an associate degree are projected to grow 32 percent over the 2000-10
period; jobs requiring a post-secondary vocational award should grow 24.1 percent
(U.S. Department of Labor). Today, college graduates earn an average of 98% more
income than non-college-graduates. And the gap is widening. (Source: U.S. Department
of Commerce). Bachelor's and master's degrees, combined with experience, provide
the best route to success.
Maryland is known for excellence in education, with a high number of superior educational
institutions, both private and public. Maryland ranks first in the nation in the
rate of high school completions (95 percent), considerably higher than the national
average (86 percent). It was also recognized as the most improved state and one of
only 15 states to achieve the 90 percent high school completion goal before 2000
(The National Education Goals Panel, 1999)
Maryland has the second highest 31.8 percent) percentage of the population age 25
and over that has completed a bachelor's degree or more (U.S. Bureau of the Census,
1998). If you want to join this elite group, and ensure your future, you can choose
from eleven universities, and there are community colleges in every state. There
are also several academies and private colleges to choose from.
