A Focus on BTU

TU is committed to making positive impacts and transforming lives in the Greater Baltimore region—but we don’t do this work alone. We do it through partnerships. And, since 2016, university-community partnerships have been supported through BTU, one of eight presidential priorities. BTU—Partnerships at Work For Greater Baltimore is about elevating the work faculty, staff, and students are already doing with our partners throughout the region. Learn more about BTU and the five focus areas guiding our work.
