Interdisciplinary Business Honors

About the Interdisciplinary Business Honors program

Designed for exceptional students from all majors across the University of Maryland, the UMD Honors College and the Robert H. Smith School of Business introduced the Interdisciplinary Business Honors Program in Fall 2022. This two-year program features an advanced and unique interdisciplinary approach. All IBH students are required to live in the IBH living-learning community, located in Prince Frederick Hall, for their first year. Students combine access to cutting-edge professional and technical business skills with broader thinking about the role of business in the world, and in relation to multiple academic fields. They then apply this knowledge to thinking critically about the great challenges of our time, including social, environmental, public health and human rights topics.
