Hello!

We hope you had a chance to participate in the USM Professional Development Week 2025.

I was able to attend the Tuesday, 11:15 a.m. "Productivity: Strategies to Thrive in the Modern Workplace" session.  The presenter gave advice managing how we work and at the end shared some tools to help with daily work.  There was discussion around different types of work that we can identify:  Admin, Deep Work, Meetings, Other.  We need time for deep work and time for collaborative work; block time for deep and focused work.  I also learned about the 3 Ds: Delay, Deny or Delegate.  Another tidbit the presenter suggested that every 2 - 3 months you should document how you are spending your time.  This can help us figure out how we are spending our time. 

If you had any sessions you thought were worthwhile, please share below in a comment or you can email me.

We are excited to share our Academic Year 2024-2025 Project Report, highlighting key IT projects and initiatives completed over the past year. This report celebrates the progress made across multiple initiatives and the contributions of DoIT teams and campus partners.

This year's report features several major initiatives, including:

1)  AI Adoption: myUMBC Answers & Campus Resources
DoIT introduced myUMBC Answers, an AI-powered search bar that helps students quickly find answers to common questions. Additional efforts included launching AI resources, piloting tools like Gemini and CoPilot, and supporting open-source AI testing.

2) NSF Grant for Campus Cyber Infrastructure: Upgrades to Research Storage
DoIT and the Division of Research & Creative Achievement, Information Systems, Computer Science launched the Retriever Research Storage System (R-RSTOR), adding 2.5 petabytes of storage to support data-intensive research, collaborations with UMCES, and seamless data mobility between on-prem and cloud systems.

3) Reports and Data Infrastructure Converted to New REX Environment
DoIT's Analytics & Business Intelligence team is modernizing UMBC's reporting infrastructure by converting legacy reports to Tableau, launching new visualizations, and creating a centralized reporting homepage. This is making data more accessible for decision-makers across campus and improving data infrastructure and long-term sustainability.

4) Registrar Classroom & Engineering Lecture Hall Upgrades
AV technology was upgraded in multiple Registrar-controlled classrooms and the Engineering 027 Lecture Hall, adding lecture capture and accessibility features to enhance teaching and learning experiences.

5) Sherman Hall Renovation: Phase I
DoIT supported Phase 1 of the Sherman Hall renovation by equipping classrooms and offices with network, AV, and telecom technology. Phase 2 begins this fall, bringing new classrooms and gathering spaces by 2026.

About the DoIT Project Management Office: In the fall of 2023, DoIT established a Project Management Office (PMO) to ensure consistent project management processes, align project objectives with divisional and university strategic goals, and enhance stakeholder communication. The PMO has made significant strides in building a project management framework in DoIT to better support our campus partners in critical IT projects.
