The iSchool Inclusion Institute (i3) is funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and is hosted by the University of Pittsburgh’s School of Information Sciences.
i3 Scholars explore the information sciences and graduate school opportunities while networking with professionals from across the country
What are the Information Sciences?
People. Information. Technology.

The information sciences focus on helping people to discover better information, design and use better technology, and make better decisions to solve problems. Whether those problems are in business, medicine, education, the arts, or any number of other fields, information professionals are able to grapple with the challenges and opportunities of the digital age.

i3 welcomes students from all majors and academic disciplines. The information sciences are incredibly diverse and interdisciplinary. With so many different specializations, students can find a program that meets their interests.

Research Project Publications
i3 Scholars work remotely to complete their yearlong research projects under the guidance of an advisor. Once they complete the program, i3 Scholars are encouraged to submit their projects for publication at academic conferences. Over 20 projects have been published at conferences such as iConference, CSCW, and IEEE SeGAH (a sample of past projects is listed below). i3 Scholars receive travel funding to present their work at conferences.

Hello AIChE, 

My name is Manika Sachdeva and I am a coordinator for HackUMBC. We are holding our Fall hackathon, called HackUMBC from October 7th-8th. A hackathon is a 24 hour event, where students from the neighboring areas and UMBC gather together and have 24 hours to create almost anything! From mobile apps to websites to VR games!  We are expecting around 600 people for this event and volunteers help our team make this event be smooth and successful. For this event, we are asking for volunteers from your organization to help out with tasks such as signing people in, taking care of food, etc (more information on the google form). Volunteers will not be required to stay the whole time and will be assigned shifts. They can still participate in the hackathon. No technical experience is required to be a volunteer or to participate!

Please visit our website for more information about the hackathon itself.

If you or your club members are interested, please fill out the attached google form as soon as possible. Feel free to contact me (msach1@umbc.edu) if you have any further questions!

Thank you!

Come join UMBC's premiere speech and debate organization. Are you interested in improving your public speaking skills, meeting new people on campus, and joining the most successful speech and debate organization at UMBC? If so, you should come to an information session for UMBC Mock Trial!

UMBC Mock Trial is a nationally ranked, award-winning program on campus, and we are looking for new members. Last year we advanced to the National Championship Tournament for the first time, and won numerous team and individual awards throughout the season. This year, we're traveling up and down the coast to compete at places like Yale, Duke, Cornell, and William & Mary, and we want you to audition for the team!

Come find out more at one of our remaining information sessions. They are:

Tuesday, September 12, 12pm: Public Policy 451
Tuesday, September 12, 7pm: Student Org Space*
Wednesday, September 13, 12pm: Fine Arts 015
Friday, September 15, 12pm: Fine Arts 015

Each info session will last about an hour, and you only need to come to one - but it is mandatory to attend a session to audition. At the sessions we'll explain more about the team and share the audition materials. If you have questions, or if you can't make any of the meetings but want to audition, email us at UMBCMockTrial@UMBC.edu and we'll send you all the information you need.

Auditions will be held next week, on Monday, September 18, and Tuesday, September 19, from 7-10pm. 

We hope to see you at our info sessions and auditions!

Our Gritstarter fundraising campaign has gone live!

HELP US COMPETE!

https://gritstarter.umbc.edu/p/mocktrial/

This past year, UMBC Mock Trial had its most successful season and we were able to compete at the National Championship in Los Angeles, California. This year, we are excited to be able to compete at Duke, William and Mary, Rutgers, and Yale just during our Fall Invitational season. Between registration fees and hotel room expenses, the cost for the season exceeds the budget that UMBC is able to provide. With your help, we can make sure that this season is even more successful than last season!

We will be using UMBC's new platform for donating, Grit Starter, in order to help us meet our goal. All donations are tax deductible, and the proceeds go directly to supporting UMBC Mock Trial! As always, thank you for supporting us and everything we do.

A big congratulations to the Cyber Dawgs who competed the over the course of the last three days to win the 2017 National CCDC (www.nationalccdc.org).

The National CCDC (Or Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition) is a competition in which teams are given inherently insecure computers/servers and told to defend those servers against professional hackers (Red team). While protecting against the red team they must also keep up critical services (Email servers for example), respond to a mock CEO, and complete business injects.

To make it to the National CCDC teams must first win their region. The winning teams from each region (10 Regions) go to compete in San Antonio, TX for the Alamo Cup. In all over 200 colleges compete in this competition annually with this year UMBC winning! 

For more information on the Cyber Defense Team and how to get involved check out our website at http://umbccd.umbc.edu

For the third year in a row the A Team competed at ORCS, this year winning 5 ballots and earning a bid to the National Championship Tournament. This is UMBC's first ever bid to the National Championship Tournament! Out of the roughly 650 teams that take part in the playoffs annually only 48 are left. UMBC is one of those! The team travels to Los Angeles, California, later this month for the competition which is April 21-23.

The B Team also had an excellent weekend as they won 4 ballots. This was an impressive achievement, especially since it was the first time a UMBC B Team had competed at ORCS. Additionally, no UMBC team had previously finished with a record of .500 or better at ORCS. It is particularly impressive, and exciting, that many of the members of the B Team are in their first or second year with the program. 

Coinciding with our trip to Nationals, we are re-opening our GiveCorps fundraising campaign to help raise Program funds. If you're interested in making a donation please visit our webpage here: https://umbc.givecorps.com/projects/16154-student-organizations-umbc-mock-trial-program. Just as before, all donations are tax deductible. We're grateful for all of your help and support.
