Conclusion of Voicemail and call processing outage

Earlier today we completed the repairs to the voicemail and call processing equipment. At this point call processing services have been restored and voicemail is again accessible and accepting new messages.


Despite our best efforts there was some data that could not be recovered. For voicemail boxes this could result in an existing message being lost. For call processing numbers it would result in a loss of the prerecorded message or greeting. Unfortunately due to the age and limited diagnostic abilities of the system we cannot tell which numbers have lost messages.


We would encourage managers of call processing numbers to check their recordings and submit a ticket through DoIT’s Technology Support Center at (410) 455-3838 or https://my.umbc.edu/help. We will be monitoring tickets and working with users promptly to record new greetings.


We appreciate the patience and understanding the campus has shown during this extended outage. DoIT will be evaluating options to modernize this system and to improve the stability of this service. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact either myself or Damian Doyle, our information is listed below.

UMBC's Cybersecurity Graduate Program Director, Richard Forno, recently wrote an article in The Conversation about a new cyberspace target in weaponized information.  In this week’s Industry Roundup, we delve into the idea of how tools can be used to target people’s perceptions and thought processes. We also take a peek into AI and sleep, healthy ways to travel, data science and the digital economy, and quantum teleportation.

I am delighted to announce the appointment of alumna Dr. Annica Wayman as Associate Dean for Shady Grove Affairs in CNMS, effective immediately.

As Associate Dean for Shady Grove Affairs, Dr. Wayman is responsible for administering and directing the undergraduate Translational Life Sciences Technology (TLST) program and Master of Professional Studies in Biotechnology at the Universities at Shady Grove (USG). She will oversee curricula and instruction; recruit and supervise qualified part-time faculty; collaborate with the Division of Professional Studies (UMBC-Shady Grove’s administrative division) on program marketing, student recruitment and retention activities; advise students; pursue business development opportunities with industry; manage UMBC's TLST/Biotechnology Advisory Board; and carry out the necessary administrative duties associated with academic program oversight. Dr. Wayman will also strengthen the relationships with our community college partners, while building UMBC’s presence and portfolio at USG.

Dr. Wayman brings to her new role extensive experience in leadership, administration, and education. For the past eight years, she worked at the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), starting as an AAAS Science and Technology Policy Fellow in the Office of Science and Technology and becoming a Division Chief in the Global Development Lab. At USAID, she led her team in managing scientific research policies and programs for the agency and its more than 90 field offices worldwide while also strengthening partnerships with higher education institutions, federal science agencies, global development institutions, and across the industry. Prior to USAID, Annica worked at Becton, Dickinson & Co. (BD) where she served in various R&D engineering roles ranging from advanced technology development to new product development for the anesthesia platform. Dr. Wayman received her Ph.D. and M.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology. Her thesis research focused on understanding the mechanokinetics of selectin-mediated adhesion of leukocytes on vascular surfaces. She received her B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from UMBC.

UMBC is very fortunate to have someone of Dr. Annica Wayman’s impressive experience and talent to serve as Associate Dean for Shady Grove Affairs in CNMS. Please join me in congratulating Dr. Wayman on her new appointment and supporting her in this important endeavor.

Today was marked both with failure and success as we made significant progress replacing the faulty, aging voicemail and call processing hardware. Despite our best efforts throughout the day we were only able to repair part of the system. Due to some additional equipment failures that occurred during the outage, we had to overnight more parts and expect to complete the maintenance during the day tomorrow (Friday 8/17).


Throughout this process we have been working closely with the vendor, taking every precaution to increase the likelihood of success. We are working hard to ensure we protect the existing data to the best of our ability. Once the additional hardware has been replaced and tested, we will synchronize the system and determine if there is any data loss.


We expect to complete the maintenance tomorrow afternoon and we will send a follow up email upon completion of the outage.


The campus community has been very patient and understanding during this process and we apologize for any inconvenience this extended outage has caused. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me and I’ll be happy to discuss any concerns with you.

The new Translational Life Science Technology program - offered exclusively at UMBC's Shady Grove campus - would like to announce an opportunity for UMBC Main Campus students to take the program's introductory course, Biotechnology Survey: Legal, Ethical, Regulatory & Biosafety Issues (BTEC 300) in Fall 2018, without the need to commute to the Shady Grove campus!

About the course itself:
BTEC 300 is designed to raise the student's awareness on a range of non-technical topics that frame the field of translational medicine and the biotechnology industry. Weekly meetings will cover topics ranging from legal decisions that affect what products can be patented by the biotechnology industry, to regulatory trends in the US and abroad, to the ethics of genomic mining and manipulation, and synthetic life. 

Course Pre-requisites: Grades of C or better in BIOL142, BIOL302, CHEM101, and PHYS111

About the course offering:
Section 02 of BTEC 300 will be offered as a streamed course on Main Campus in Fall 2018, meaning that Main Campus students will attend class at the same time as the Shady Grove campus students (who will enroll in section 01), participating via live-stream feed from the Shady Grove course's classroom to a classroom on Main Campus (location TBD, check the Schedule of Classes for updates).

Life Sciences majors: Please be aware that BTEC 300 is NOT currently approved as an elective that will meet major requirements for any of the majors offered by the Biological Sciences Department or the Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry. However, for students who are considering a career in Translational Science or Biotechnology, or who may want to learn more about the TLST degree at Shady Grove, BTEC 300 may be an excellent general (upper-level!) elective to explore that interest further!
