In 1812, it was rechartered as the University of Maryland and given the authority to establish additional faculties in law, divinity, and arts and sciences. The faculty of law was founded in 1816, though it operated intermittently until 1868. The faculty of arts and sciences also operated intermittently in the 19th century. From 1907 to 1920, St. John's College functioned as the University of Maryland's faculty of arts and sciences; this loose federation was dissolved in 1920 when the Maryland State College, the state's land grant college, became part of the University of Maryland. In 1970, the Maryland General Assembly established a five-campus University of Maryland network comprising the University of Maryland at Baltimore, University of Maryland Baltimore County, University of Maryland, College Park, University of Maryland Eastern Shore, and the University of Maryland University College with a system-wide president in College Park and a chancellor in charge of each campus; in 1988 this institution was merged with the State University and College System of Maryland to form the University System of Maryland. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「University of Maryland, Baltimore」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
