Jan. 28-30 Virtual Operations, Campus Remains Closed

Bowie State University will continue with virtual operations for all classes and office operations through Friday, January 30, 2026. The campus will be closed to all non-essential personnel, and all campus activities are canceled. All buildings except residence halls and the dining hall will be closed. Essential personnel should report on time. This is due to the extended time required to clear the extensive snow and ice accumulation on campus. University crews are making every effort to resume campus operations, as a safe return to in-person learning and work remains our top priority. Only essential personnel and residential students are permitted access to the campus through Jan. 30. For more information, please visit BowieState.edu/weather.

College of Arts & Sciences

The College of Arts and Sciences is where we open your eyes and mind to ideas that range from fine arts and creative writing to philosophy and computer programming.

Overview

The College of Arts and Sciences offers a broad spectrum of courses that teach you how to question, analyze, understand and theorize. You will work closely with highly credentialed professors who are either practicing their art or doing cutting-edge research, and select from unique programs like music technology or bioinformatics—which combines mathematics and biology.

There are also multiple ways that you can sharpen your skills here. You can do exciting research with professors in our genomics, cybersecurity or virtual reality labs. Or head over to the new Fine and Performing Arts Center, which was designed to enhance your artistic gifts, to practice on the Steinway pianos or mix music in the recording studio. And no matter your major, you’ll have on- and off- stage opportunities that could range from working in an artist’s studio to snagging a foreign relations internship at the U.S. Department of State.
