Office of the Vice President for State and Federal Relations & Chief of Staff


Office of State Relations

The Office of State Relations works directly with the University's administration and Maryland's state governments.  The Office works with state elected officials and local jurisdictions to leverage resources to significantly elevate the University's impact in our nation's capital and in the State of Maryland.  Our focus on state matters involves:

  • Monitoring bills and initiatives in the State Legislature in Annapolis;
  • Disseminating information to Morgan's academic deans for feedback on bills that would have a negative or benefiting effect on our interests; and
  • Assisting University units in researching issues and connecting them with appropriate state government offices and staff.
