Notre Dame of Maryland University (NDMU) and Mount Mary University (MMU) have teamed up to address the staffing shortages in education with a new Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the universities that will allow students to seamlessly transition into advanced degrees.

The joint agreements will enable master's students in education at MMU to seamlessly transition into one of two NDMU online Ph.D. in education programs. In addition NDMU undergraduates will have the opportunity to transition into MMU's Master of Social Work program, with options to transfer credits and earn the degree
