Robert H. Smith
Visionary
businessman
philanthropist
friend
One of 12 colleges and schools at the University of Maryland, College Park, the Smith School maintains rigorous academic standards within a supportive, collaborative community that values diverse viewpoints and cultures. No longer confined to College Park, the school provides convenient campuses in downtown Washington, D.C., Bethesda (Shady Grove) and Baltimore, as well as an executive MBA program in Beijing, China, and an online MBA program. The school is actively involved in serving the region’s business community through timely and relevant programs offered by its Office of Executive Education. In 1998, what was then called the Maryland Business School received a generous pledge of $15 million from Robert H. Smith ‘50. Entrepreneur, developer, business leader and philanthropist, Mr. Smith was more than a major benefactor of the school”. He was a continuing source of inspiration and leadership to faculty and students. In recognition of his transformational gift, the school was named in his honor. In 2008, he addressed the graduating class:
“It is a great honor and privilege to have your name associated with mine as you go out into the world to pursue your dreams.”
