The University of Maryland University College will continue its 64-year tradition of educating U.S. troops overseas after being awarded a new contract by the Department of Defense. The contract calls for UMUC to offer exclusive undergraduate and graduate instruction at military installations across Europe.

UMUC first began sending faculty overseas in 1949 and has continuously served the higher education needs of active duty military and their families since. The new contract is renewed annually and extends through academic year 2022-2023.

“Serving the needs of the U.S. military is in our DNA. We are extremely pleased and proud to continue our long history of educating troops overseas, ” said Javier Miyares, president of UMUC. “This award affirms the dedication of our faculty and staff abroad and the commitment that is shared throughout the university to providing a quality education to those who sacrifice so much to protect us.”

In addition to undergraduate liberal arts programs, active duty military personnel, their families and DoD civilians can earn graduate level degrees in a wide variety of disciplines, including cybersecurity, homeland security, social work and business administration.

Under the new contract, UMUC will offer its MBA program for the first time in the European Command, in addition to partnering with two other institutions in the University System of Maryland for first-time overseas programs. Frostburg State University and UMUC will offer an undergraduate teacher education program, while Salisbury University and UMUC will offer undergraduate and graduate (MSW) programs in social work.

“Educating our troops is a privilege we take very seriously, ” said Dr. Allan Berg, UMUC senior vice president and overseas director. “Our faculty and staff in Europe will strive to deliver the highest quality programs possible for our students.”
