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.

Special Opportunities

Experience: Through the university’s partnerships with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, students have access to internships where they gain real-world lab and research experience.

Research: Conduct research with a faculty mentor through the Summer Undergraduate Research Institute (SURI), McNair Scholars Program or a course-based undergraduate research experience (CURE), which engages an entire class in scientific inquiry. Those opportunities prepare students to present their research at conferences or publish their research in scholarly journals.
