The 2018–19 UMBC Retrievers women's basketball team represented the University of Maryland, Baltimore County during the 2018–19 NCAA Division I women's basketball season.

The Retrievers, initially led by seventeenth year head coach Phil Stern, played their home games at UMBC Event Center and are members of the America East Conference.

On February 22, 2019, Stern, who had been on administrative leave since December 13, 2018, announced his resignation from UMBC.

Assistant coach Carlee Cassidy-Dewey served as interim head coach during Stern's initial leave, and continued in that role following his resignation.
