If there are further disability-related questions, please reach out to  UMBC Accessibility & Disability Services.

RSVP Post with Link to Event Here

Publishing is an indispensable requirement in academia. Many graduate programs encourage their students to publish to obtain an advanced degree, but it is usually at the discretion of the research advisors to guide students through this conundrum.

How do you start the process of writing a publication? What are impact factors and how do you decide if your data is impactful enough to be submitted to a particular publication or journal? How do you get your publication fee covered?

To help students through the publishing conundrum, we invited a STEM faculty panel at UMBC from our COEIT and CNMS colleges to discuss publication-related topics. This event intends to demystify the publishing process, and learn how to overcome perfectionism, time management skills, what is writer's block, and more.

Faculty Panelists:
This event is co-hosted by the AOK Library and the Office of Graduate Student Development - PROMISE at UMBC.

Event Details
Time: Noon-1:00p.m.
Location: University Center 201D (The Pride Center)
Date: Tomorrow, October 12, 2022


A community can be a vital tool to help all of us get through life’s ups and downs and celebrate our big and small moments. Community Conversations is an interactive event that will help students understand the role of community in supporting their well-being and mental health. This session will center the LGBTQIA+ community and their experiences. This conversation will also highlight what it means to “show up” for others.

Time will also be allotted for questions from participants related to mental health and wellness in connection to the LGBTQIA+ community. 

If you need to request a disability-based accommodation or have any questions? Contact us at i3b@umbc.edu. For our uploaded event recordings, attendee lists, works cited, and other materials, please check out our Initiatives for Identity, Inclusion & Belonging (i3b) Events Drive. Materials will be available in this Google Drive within one business week after the event unless otherwise specified.
