Welcome to the Core Values Conversation!
At the University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB), our core values are more than words, they are our way of life — the demonstration of what we stand for and the guide for our behaviors. Our core values of Respect and Integrity, Well-Being and Sustainability, Equity and Justice, and Innovation and Discovery are at the heart of our mission to improve the human condition and serve the public good of Maryland and society at-large.
From now through the end of January 2025, we will be highlighting UMB’s core value of Well-Being and Sustainability — We care about the welfare of our people, planet, communities, and University — by posing thought-provoking questions for you to respond to.
This is an opportunity to engage with this core value in an intentional way and share your insights with the UMB community.
