<Title>UMBC Faculty Mentoring Workshops Spring 2024 Updates</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div>Dear Colleagues,</div>
    <div> </div>
    <div>Happy New Year! I hope you had a lovely break. I’m writing to you in my role as the peer facilitator for the Faculty Mentoring Programs, sponsored by the Provost’s office. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>Sign up for in-person mentoring workshops <a href="https://provost.umbc.edu/faculty-mentorship-programs/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">here</a>. There are three series: new faculty, recently promoted, and leadership development. </strong></div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>******</div>
    <div>Faculty Mentoring Programs Updates:</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>I am delighted to share that we are offering <strong>a new virtual mentoring mini-workshop series this spring for junior faculty and others</strong>. This was suggested by Tania Lizarazo, Associate Professor in MLLI, speaking on behalf of faculty who would like to participate but are unable to do so in-person. The first virtual workshop is Friday, February 2, from 9:30 – 11:00 a.m. Our featured speaker is Felipe Filomeno, Associate Director for the Center for Social Science Scholarship and Associate Professor in Political Science. Felipe’s talk is entitled, “Aligning Your Professional Goals with Your Core Values.” Registration information for this workshop and the other workshops can be found <a href="https://provost.umbc.edu/new-spring-2024-junior-faculty-virtual-workshop-series/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">here</a>.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>We also now have a new <strong><a href="https://provost.umbc.edu/faculty-mentoring-lending-library/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Faculty Mentoring Lending Library</a></strong> with books of interest to faculty on the topics of leadership, microaggressions, empathy, belonging and community within higher education amongst other topics. The books in our curated lending library are available to all faculty. Please contact Orianne Smith (<a href="mailto:osmith@umbc.edu">osmith@umbc.edu</a>) if you are interested in checking out one of these books. And let us know too if there is a book you have found useful that we should include here!</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Finally, below are some testimonials from faculty in the current cohorts:</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>New Faculty: “This exceeded my expectations! The presentation provided really good food for thought, it was so nice to meet other colleagues in similar situations. The materials were all very helpful.”</div>
    <div> </div>
    <div>Recently Promoted: “It was great talking through the values and connecting to ideas, and I like the cohort mode.”</div>
    <div> </div>
    <div>Leadership: “I enjoyed the opportunity to hear from my colleagues across campus. Learning from people from different sized departments and departments in other colleges gave me new ideas and a better appreciation for the things that are working well. I left with a mix of new strategies and gratitude.”</div>
    <div> </div>
    <div>These workshops and the speakers have been amazing! Please do consider joining us!</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Orianne Smith</div>

    <div>Associate Professor and Graduate Program Director, English</div>
    <div>Affiliate Associate Professor, Gender, Women’s + Sexuality Studies</div>

    <div class="html-content">
    <em>January 24, 2024</em><div>
    <br> <strong>William Gao</strong>, a senior in the <em>Centennial High School</em>, has been
    selected as one of the 40 finalists in the <em>2024 Regeneron
    Science Talent Search</em> from among more than 2,000 entrants. Each finalist was awarded a $25,000 prize.</div>
    <div>
    <br><p>
    William was mentored by <strong>Dr. Yi Huang</strong>, an Associate Professor
    at the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at UMBC.
    Their research led to the development of
    an artificial intelligence-driven, resource-efficient, mobile
    diagnostic system to identify cancerous regions in patient
    tumor samples.
    Their findings were published in an article in Cancer Informatics:
    
    </p>
    <p><strong>Gao W, Wang D, Huang Y, </strong><em>“Designing a Deep Learning-Driven
    Resource-Efficient Diagnostic System for Metastatic Breast Cancer: Reducing
    Long Delays of Clinical Diagnosis and Improving Patient Survival in Developing
    Countries”</em>,
    <a href="https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/11769351231214446" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">
    Cancer Informatics 2023;22</a>.
    
    
    </p>
    <p>
    Finalists will  further participate in a week-long competition in March 2024, during which they will undergo a rigorous judging process that goes beyond their own research to encompass other scientific disciplines and compete for more than $1.8 million in awards.

<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <p>UMBC’s History Department’s Internship Stipend provides funding for undergraduate students who have secured <em>unpaid</em> internships at public history organizations (or other relevant institutions). Funds are available to award up to 5 stipends a year.</p>
    <p><span>Eligibility</span></p>
    <p>Students need to be enrolled in the History major or public history minor to apply. The application is open to students of all class years, although preference is given to sophomores and above. Funds can not be applied to an internship experience that would take place after a student has graduated. The award is not available to interns who are already being paid by their sponsoring organization. Prior recipients of the award are not eligible for a second round of funding.</p>
    <p><span>Compensation and Course Enrollment</span></p>
    <p>Stipends for selected interns will be up to a maximum of $1500 for a full-time internship (smaller stipends may be available for part-time internships). Students who receive the award must enroll in three credits of HIST 391, either in the spring or fall semester that they are doing their internship, or for a summer internship, in the following fall semester. Students are expected to work at least 120 hours. The full internship course requirements are described <a href="https://history.umbc.edu/careers/filesintership-requirements-and-form/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">here</a>.</p>
    <p><span>Selection Process</span></p>
    <p>Applications will be reviewed by a faculty selection committee looking for exceptional ability and commitment, excellent academic record, pronounced interest in/knowledge of the relevant career path, strong oral and written communication skills, demonstrated maturity, and reliability. The committee will notify students before the internship semester begins.</p>
