From the parking lot, exit right onto Paint Branch Drive and continue along that road until you reach the Kim Engineering Building on your right (5-10 min walk).
If you are bringing boxes or displays, please see below for information about unloading items at the Kim Building prior to parking.
Directions to Xfinity Center Visitor Lot:
Option One – entering campus from University Boulevard (MD 193). Turn onto Paint Branch Drive. Visitor Lot will be on right side.

If you are bringing supplies the day of the Career Fair, please use Engineering Drive between the Kim Building and Clark Hall to unload your items. Because this is a side street, early arrival is suggested to avoid congestion. Please plan on a maximum of 10 minutes for unloading. We suggest having two people when unloading supplies so that one can stay with your items while the other parks the car.
Employers can start setting up their tables in the Kim Building at 11 a.m.
If the university must close due to inclement weather, then all events, including this career fair, will be cancelled. For information about closures, please check the University of Maryland website or call 301.405.SNOW. If we need to cancel, we will contact you afterwards with more information.
