The Johns Hopkins Carey Business School, also referred to as Carey Business School or JHUCarey or simply Carey, is the business school of the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. As "the newest school in America's first research university," the school offers full-time and part-time MBA degrees, master of science degrees, several joint degrees with other Johns Hopkins schools—including medicine, public health, arts and sciences, engineering, and nursing—and Maryland Institute College of Art, as well as a number of graduate certificates. The Carey Business School is accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).
James Carey (1751-1834), the namesake of the Carey Business School, is a relative to Johns Hopkins (founder of Johns Hopkins University and Hospital), a co-founder of the Gilman School, and ancestor to several founding trustees of the university and hospital. His sixth-generation decedent, William P. Carey, has been in active pursuit of establishing a business school for Johns Hopkins University since 1950s and realized his "lifelong dream" in 2006.
The origins of the school can be traced back to 1909, when the "College Courses for Teachers" school was created at Hopkins. In 1925 the school changed its name to "College for Teachers", then adopted the name "McCoy College" in 1947 as it welcomed into its classrooms many World War II veterans studying on the G.I. Bill. In 1965, the school's name changed again, to "Evening College and Summer Session", until 1983, when it became known as the School of Continuing Studies. Then, in 1999, in order to more clearly reflect its two remaining major divisions, the school was renamed as the School of Professional Studies in Business and Education (SPSBE). Throughout all of these iterations, the central objective of serving the educational needs of working professionals, allowing them to complete degrees while maintaining careers, held true. Over the years, the school evolved from a teacher’s college to one of nine major schools within the university, housing the majority of Hopkins' part-time academic programs. On January 1, 2007, SPSBE separated into two new schools—the Johns Hopkins University Carey Business School, and the Johns Hopkins University School of Education; the latter soon rose to the status of the No. 1 ranked education school in the U.S.
