In an evening full of anticipation and hope, the inaugural University of Baltimore “Pitch for a Million” competition hit the mark. The culmination of 10 weeks of intense discovery, brainstorming and planning for UB’s Real Estate Fellows, the June 5 competition led to five thoughtful and professionally-crafted proposals focused on the middle market real estate needs of five Baltimore neighborhoods—Forest Park, Franklin Square, Upton, Liberty Heights and Cherry Hill. The Merrick School of Business’s M. Scot Kaufman Auditorium was filled with engaged community leaders, family, friends, and area real estate investors, all curious to see which pitch would garner the million dollar guidance line of credit from Baltimore Community Lending.

It may feel like a scorcher out there today, but what's really hot are the new program offerings in the Merrick School of Business.

There is nothing like a hot June day in Baltimore. However, the real hot topic we're talking about today are the new and updated academic offering that our faculty have rolled out over the past few months.

While mostly these include new specializations in the school's two largest programs, we did have considerable new offerings created that can enhance an accountants career. Read on to check out what's hot. 

You know us because we’ve been educating leaders for nearly 100 years; you know us through our faculty’s outstanding research and teaching; you know us thanks to the hard work, dedication of UB alumni, students and staff. You know us because we are the University of Baltimore.
