Our Mission:

To create an interactive community of educators, students, researchers, corporations and government representatives whose collaborative thinking and discovery expand academic and technological boundaries and advance economic development.

About Us:

The Johns Hopkins University Montgomery County Campus offers part-time graduate courses in several disciplines, including education, biotechnology and liberal arts. Students attend classes in the evenings and on Saturdays, enabling them to hold full-time jobs during the day. Depending on the degree area, students can fully complete their coursework in Montgomery County. Other students take some courses in Baltimore and/ or online.

Johns Hopkins Montgomery County Campus is also a site for the popular Osher Lifelong Learning Institute. Geared toward retirees, these non-credit classes cover topics including opera, literature, history, politics and more.

The campus is home to approximately 35 research companies and entrepreneurs. Scientists on campus are studying cervical cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, cell therapy, proteins and other health issues. Other companies focus on technology, medical devices and consulting services. The Rockville Science Center's administrative offices are located here. Start-up companies, second-stage businesses and more established companies are welcome.

History:

The Montgomery County Campus was established in 1988 as a cooperative venture with the County to provide integrated teaching, research and business opportunities.

The campus is experiencing significant growth, with plans to expand from its current 215,000 square feet to 2.7 million square feet of academic, research and corporate space during the next decade.
