MORGAN STATE UNIVERSITY

2020 Bear Facts Baltimore, Maryland morgan.edu

Morgan’s 10th President Dr. David Kwabena Wilson Dear Friends, There is no greater time than the present to become acquainted with Morgan State University as we are experiencing a period of unprecedented momentum. From expanding our academic offering to include degree programs in emerging, highly sought-after industries, to the physical transformation afoot on our sprawling urban campus, Morgan State is on the move and we welcome you to join us!

In the ensuing pages you will come to know Morgan’s rich history and penchant for academic excellence, career achievement and development of leaders the world over.

The past 10 years have been a decade of significant advancement for MSU. In 2018, we became a Carnegie-classified “R2,” highresearch institution, a change that reflects the phenomenal external funding we have received for our research in recent years and the tremendous increase in innovation in STEM and other fields by our faculty and students. Grants and contracts from public sources such as the National Science Foundation (NSF), the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) fuel advanced multidisciplinary investigative study setting our sights on the highly coveted “R1” doctoral research classification.

Student success at Morgan is increasing by every measure, including our graduation rate, which is our highest on record, and honors such as Fulbright scholarships and grants, which have been awarded to Morgan students and faculty in greater numbers than at any other Historically Black College or University. And for nine consecutive years, we’ve maintained a student retention rate at, or above, 70 percent.

MORGAN Our degree offerings include 126 programs now, among them a new Bachelor of Science in Cloud Computing, the only such degree offered in Maryland. A new College of Osteopathic Medicine is poised to join our campus, with designated opportunities for Morgan students to enroll.

Our motto is Growing the Future, Leading the World, and our global footprint is indeed expanding. A record number of scholars participated in Morgan’s study abroad programs in 2018–19, and we will be offering our degrees abroad for the first time beginning in Fall 2020, through two MSU business programs and an MSU strategic communication program at a university in Ghana.

Of course, the most visible signs of Morgan’s growth are our new facilities, which include our $88-million student services building, opening Spring 2020, not far from the sites of our new health and human services building and our new science complex, which are soon to come.

We hope this booklet inspires you to visit our beautiful campus, a designated National Treasure whose rich, vibrant and diverse atmosphere is captured in the pages that follow. Rise with us!

Sincerely, David Kwabena Wilson, Ed.D. President david.wilson@morgan.edu

Residence Hall

In collaboration with the Maryland Economic Development Corporation (MEDCO), the University has begun the preliminary design for the construction of a modern, apartment-style residence facility that will be located on Morgan’s South Campus, adjacent to the site of the Thurgood Marshall Apartment Complex. Meeting the University’s need for increased student residential housing, the new residence hall will provide 660 beds and dining to accommodate Morgan’s growing new and returning student population. The projected completion date for the new residence hall is Fall 2022.

New Health and Human Services Building

Design of the new Health and Human Services Building commenced Fall 2019.

The new building will provide state-of-the-art classroom, lab, demonstration, office and community spaces for the School of Community Health and Policy, including Public Health, Pre-Professional Physical Therapy, Nutritional Sciences and the Prevention Sciences Research Center; the School of Social Work; the Medical Technology program; the Department of Family and Consumer Sciences; and the University Counseling Center. The building’s location at the northeast corner of Argonne Drive and Hillen Road, across from the recently developed West Campus, forms the southern gateway to our campus. The facility will be located on the current site of Turner’s Armory, for which design for demolition is underway. Construction is expected to be completed in 2024.

Five-Year Projects

Included in the governor’s five-year Capital Improvement Program for Morgan is funding for a new Science Building, which will be located at the corner of E. Cold Spring Lane and Stadium Way. The new facility will provide state-of-the art classrooms, teaching labs and research space, which will help further our doctoral research mission. The Science Building will be completed in 2027.

Funds will also be requested in Morgan’s Five-Year Plan for the renovation/ demolition of facilities that will be vacated upon completion of the Health and Human Services Building, including the Carter-Grant-Wilson administration building and the original Jenkins Building.
