Host Registration: UMBC's Research Admins Shadowing Day - Oct 27, 2026

The RAG Central & Departmental Collaboration Group presents:

UMBC's Research Admins Shadowing Day, taking place across campus on

Wednesday, October 27, 2026.

This is an in-person event to meet your research admin colleagues, share best practices, and learn from each other.

See the attached flyer for details and click HERE to register as a Host to welcome other Research Admins into your space to show what you do and have meaningful conversations to share ideas and connect.

 

We are looking for Hosts across campus that are involved in research administration. This can also include procurement, payroll preparers for research departments, research development, compliance, etc. There are three time slots, which will give everyone a chance to Host as well as be a Guest to visit other offices.

 

Host sign-up is due Wednesday, September 9, 2026. Once Hosts are signed-up and in place, we will then post a Guest sign-up. The more Hosts that participate, the more Guests that we can accommodate.

Why not speak with your supervisor this week to discuss the benefits of hosting?

 

If you have questions, please reach out to Amy Steinly-Marks (asmarks@umbc.edu) and/or Emma Wheatley (emma9@umbc.edu), co-Leaders of the RAG Central & Departmental Collaboration Group.
