Susan C. Aldridge, PhD

Dear UMUC Students, Faculty, and Staff,

It is with great pleasure that I join University of Maryland University College as your new president.

As one of the world's largest distance education providers, UMUC proudly serves students throughout Maryland and the United States, as well as overseas. We are especially proud to be the largest education provider to the U.S. military worldwide.

UMUC understands the educational needs of today's students and is uniquely positioned to reach them — whether on site, online, in a corporate headquarters, or in a war zone. The quality of UMUC's education is unparalleled, and it is regarded as one of the top institutions providing educational options to adults in the workforce and “nontraditional” students.

UMUC is one of the crown jewels of the University System of Maryland — an institution poised for exponential growth. I feel fortunate to be a part of that growth and success along with an extraordinarily talented team of professionals.

I invite you to learn more about UMUC. Join more than 90,000 students who are receiving a world-class education from this global university.

Susan C. Aldridge
President
University of Maryland University College
