Overview

Hinman CEOs Program University of Maryland

Established in 1999 as a living-learning entrepreneurship program, the new Hinman CEOs Program evolved in 2024 to the Hinman CEOs Startup Accelerator.

Overview

Founded in 1999 as the nation’s first living-learning entrepreneurship program, Hinman CEOs is evolving into a student startup accelerator with a singular focus: helping undergraduates launch technology ventures.

This isn’t a traditional classroom experience. It’s a hands-on, non-credit program built around the startup journey. Through weekly coaching, collaborative workshops, and real-world challenges, students will validate their ideas, develop compelling business models, build their products, and prepare to raise funding.

Flexible by design, the experience allows students to chart a path aligned with their goals, experience, and stage of development, all while learning alongside a community of ambitious student founders.

Stay tuned. The next chapter of Hinman CEOs is coming soon.
