About the Office

Towson University introduced its first graduate degree program in 1958. Since then, the Office of Graduate Studies has grown to offer 80+ graduate degrees and certificate programs serving more than 4,000 students. The Office of Graduate Studies continues to help thousands stay ahead of change and in top demand by offering programs in business, education, fine arts and communication, health professions, liberal arts, science and mathematics.

The full- and part-time programs are led by nationally prominent faculty who combine theory and applied, practical knowledge while encouraging collaboration on research projects and creative productions. Students have the opportunity to learn in an environment complemented by the diverse perspectives and experiences of their peers, who hail from a variety of geographic locations, cultures and ethnic backgrounds.

Graduate students may apply and register online, utilize academic and career services, enjoy small class sizes and accessible faculty. Classes are offered during the day, in the evening, on weekends, online, and at the suburban Baltimore campus and various off-campus locations.
