University of Maryland Strategic Partnership: MPowering the State The University of Maryland Strategic Partnership: MPowering the State (MPower) is a collaboration between the state of Maryland’s two most powerful public research engines: the University of Maryland, Baltimore ( UMB ) and the University of Maryland, College Park ( UMCP ) — to strengthen and serve the state of Maryland and its citizens. Since its creation in 2012, MPower has fostered hundreds of collaborations from across both institutions that are growing Maryland’s innovation economy, advancing interdisciplinary research, increasing educational benefits, and addressing the state’s most critical issues. The partnership is delivering on a vision of collaboration, innovation, and transformative impact across Maryland. Working together, UMB and UMCP achieve INNOVATION and IMPACT through COLLABORATION . #11 Among all public U.S. research institutions. 20+ Joint Academic Collaborations at UMB and UMCP #19 In the nation for research and development spending. $1.4B In Research and Development Awards (FY23) Implementation of the Strategic Partnership Act of 2016 The University of Maryland Strategic Partnership Act of 2016 strengthened and formalized the structured relationship between UMB and UMCP, which began in 2012. The law deepens the alliance and energizes UMB and UMCP to pursue even greater transformative change and impact, far surpassing what each institution could do independent of each other. In addition to formalizing the structure, the law led to more alignment and coordination, and created two new centers based at UMB and UMCP: the Center for Maryland Advanced Ventures and the University of Maryland Center for Economic and Entrepreneurship Development .
