St. Mary's College of Maryland (SMCM) is a public liberal arts college in St. Mary's City, Maryland.[7][8][9][3] Established in 1840, St. Mary's College is an honors college that claims to "offer an experience similar to that of an elite liberal arts college".[10] With about 1,600 enrolled students, the institution offers bachelor's degrees in 21 disciplines,[3] as well as a master's program and certification programs.[3]
The college shares much of its campus with Historic St. Mary's City, the site of Maryland's first colony and capital.[7][3] It is also the site of the fourth colony in British North America. The Historical Archaeology Field School is jointly operated by St. Mary's College of Maryland and Historic St. Mary's City.[11][12] The campus and the rest of St. Mary's City combined are considered to be one of the premier archaeological sites in the United States.[11]
