The requirements for participating in a leadership position in the COM are that the student must be a declared major, have a 2.5 or greater GPA, and still have at least fall 21 and spring 22 before graduation.

For more information and/or to volunteer you can contact me (katie.birger@umbc.edu) and Saad Fakhar (sfakhar2@umbc.edu), the COM President. Students will be considered on a rolling basis.

Eventually the major name, transcript, and degree audit will read Public Health, and tracks will be listed and correct. If you notice inconsistencies, and don't have an urgent need for a resolution, please be patient and wait for all the changes to be processed. If you have an urgent reason to have your records updated and correct (like summer graduation, transcripts for graduate school, employment, or internship applications) you can put in a ticket with the Registrar's Office. 
  1. Go to Help on the top of the main myUMBC page
  2. Select either Degree Audit or Transcript Inquires
  3. Note that you are ALREADY a Public Health major and are missing your track in degree audit and/or transcripts. Note your track by name (not number)
  4. CC Bethany Spore (briege1@umbc.edu, -note the corrected email address if you clicked thorough and it didn't work) and Ms Sanford (dsanford@umbc.edu)
If you do not need this resolved for summer, please wait until fall. Each student must be changed manually and it is a lot of work. It will get resolved eventually!

Thursday, July 22, 2021
9:30 AM – 11:00 AM
Lot 22 - Corner of HIlltop Circle and Hilltop Road
Host:  The Wisdom Institute

A new academic year is on the horizon, and UMBC students will be back on the campus.  Join us for a drive-in “Share-a-Thon,” to collect healthy, non-perishable foods, toiletries, and select cold-weather gear [hats, gloves, scarves] for students facing financial or housing challenges.  Cash donations [in person or online] are also welcome.  We’ll meet and collect donations at Parking Lot 22 (off Wilkens Avenue and Hilltop Road near the PAHB) on campus. 

To donate food, toiletries or fund them remotely, you can place an Amazon Wish List order on their website.   Lists of needed items to donate in person can also be identified from the food and toiletries listings in their website, Retriever Essentials

As communication about events such as this slowly ramp up, please share widely with your department, program, team, students and colleagues as well as anyone in the area who would like to donate.

Thank you for your continued support!!  Together we're providing students free, nutritious food and hopefully helping them to graduate so that they will never be hungry again!!
