Together Towson is a university initiative designed to strengthen and support connections between Towson University and the Towson community. We’re building on our shared momentum in Towson through development, engaging experiences and core commitments to our community.
Dynamic Development
Towson University is invested in a number of building development projects, both on- and off-campus. Not only are we creating additional opportunities for our students, we’re expanding resources the entire community can utilize for research, academics, business growth and recreation. In addition to TU’s on-campus construction, the university has also taken ownership of properties in uptown Towson to offer more resources to more people, and to deepen the connection between campus and community.
