To learn more, see the guidelines below, or return to myUMBC to login. Patterned after web portals like myYahoo or myExcite, myUMBC will give students, faculty and staff a dedicated site for information and applications personalized for their needs and interests. The site can also be found by directing any browser to my.umbc.edu. Faculty will also benefit from the improved performance and new, easier to use interface as they advise students and manage their courses.
Further enhancements are already under development.
Also, myUMBC is not browser dependent, which means campus users can login from the library or Liberia, and still get a uniquely personal web interface. As a dedicated site for internal communication, look for myUMBC to carry future enhancements such as access to the faculty annual report, an online procurement system, and utilities for changing benefits or stopping your email while on vacation. Also, enhancements to the registration and advising functions, from enhanced help functions to an on-line degree audit system, are already under development. UMBC users are also encouraged to help develop myUMBC by providing feedback on information and applications that would be most desirable. Look for a short survey to appear in the announcements section of the myUMBC user page, as well as the logout screen.
