The Consortium of Universities of the Washington Metropolitan Area (the Consortium) is a nonprofit educational association of 24 colleges and universities, and the National Geographic Society, and the Smithsonian Institution in the greater Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, and was established to drive collaboration in higher education across the National Capital Region. For more than half a century, it has evolved into a powerful, unifying voice for its member institutions—locally, regionally, and nationally—and a catalyst for expanding opportunity and promoting broad-based economic and workforce development.
