Advising Assignment Information for BIOL, BIOC, and BINF
BIOL, BIOC, and BINF majors:
The Life Sciences Advisors will be sending out emails with advising assignment information for this semester (and the Fall 2013 Registration process) by March 8. Please check your UMBC email account.
These emails will go to all students whose BIOL, BIOC, or BINF major was officially declared (meaning, updated to your student record) by February 8, 2013 (the end of Schedule Adjustment). If your major was declared after that date, please refer to the Life Sciences Interim Advising guide.
Shortly after, the lists of majors (with assignments) will be posted in the Life Sciences Advising suite (MEYR 140) and outside the Biological Sciences and Chemistry & Biochemistry main offices (BS 480 and MEYR 100, respectively) for those who accidentally delete their message.
You may also receive additional emails from your assigned advisor. Please be sure to follow his/her instructions, making note of any materials that he/she wishes you to bring with you and deadlines that he/she sets.

Registration for Fall 2013 is coming!
Start getting ready now, so that you can register on time!
Advance Registration for Fall 2013 (and Summer 2013) is due to begin on Monday, March 25th. That's the Monday immediately after Spring Break!
You will likely hear from your academic advisors in the next couple of weeks, but there are things that you can start doing now to get yourself ready for Registration...
- Make sure that you will be up-to-date on all of your bills and fees before Registration begins.*
- Make sure that there are no other holds on your UMBC account. Most advisors do not have access to this kind of detail in your records, so be sure to check your own "Alerts" in myUMBC.
- If you transferred in coursework from another school, or brought in AP/IB/CLEP scores, check your Transfer Credit Report to make sure that everything is there. If courses or scores are missing or incorrect, check in with Admissions (to see if your complete transcripts/score reports were received) or the Registrar's Office (for errors in processing), and follow up with updated copies, if needed.
- Look over your Degree Audit and identify the requirements (University, GEP, and Major) that you still need to fulfill.
- Think about your short- and long-term goals, your academic performance (good and poor), and your non-academic responsibilities. All of these things should play a part in your decision-making process during Registration!
- Make note of questions that you want to remember to ask your advisor.
- If you are planning to take summer courses elsewhere, familiarize yourself with the UMBC policies and paperwork before you meet with your advisor. There may be additional rules/restrictions based on your major or academic history.
FYI, registering for
Summer Session at UMBC does not require advising clearance, and
is not limited by your class standing. Everyone can begin registering for Summer 2013 on March 25th!
For items 4-6, the CNMS Advising staff has developed a worksheet to help students prepare for an advising appointment. You can find it in the Documents section of this myUMBC Group, or by following
this link.
If you need some reminders about how to navigate SA to find your Transfer Credit Report, Degree Audit, and your Registration functions, you can find more information by following
this link.
* Note: If being financially cleared before your registration date isn't possible, SEE YOUR ADVISOR ANYWAY! Your advising clearance is not connected to your financial eligibility, so they can still see you if you are trying to get your finances worked out. Faculty advisors often carve out a special period of time in their calendar for undergraduate advising. If you miss that window, it can delay your ability to register for classes once your bills taken care of. Get in to see them when their attention is focused on working with you!

First-Year Seminars and your GEPs
Make sure you know what counts!
Any student who is in their first year at UMBC - freshmen and transfer students - are eligible to take courses in the First-Year Seminar (FYS) program.
Many FYS courses carry GEP designations, and can be used to meet those requirements.
However...
Students may take more than one FYS course, but they may only use one FYS course in the completion of their GEPs.
If the FYS course is being used to satisfy AH or SS requirements (3 courses needed in each), the other two courses used to fulfill that requirement category must come from different disciplines. For example, if your FYS course carries an AH designation, you can't use two ENGL AH courses to finish the requirement, but you could use your FYS AH, an ENGL AH, and a PHIL AH.
For more information on FYS courses and other programs for first-year students, follow the link below to the Office of Undergraduate Education's web site.

Are You Ready for Organic Chemistry?
Take the Chemistry Tutorial Center's CHEM351 Pre-Test!
Are you planning to take Organic Chemistry I (CHEM351) in Spring 2013, but are a little concerned that you're not prepared?
Dr. Gierasch and the Chemistry Tutorial Center are offering an Individualized Readiness Assessment (pre-test) to help you determine which General Chemistry (CHEM101/102) topics you need to review prior to starting Organic Chemistry.
While any student can make use of this resource, it is highly recommended that the following students take the assessment:
- Students who took General Chemistry prior to Fall 2012 (IOW, you've had a break in your Chemistry sequence)
- Students who took General Chemistry (CHEM101/102) at another institution
- Students who received a C in either CHEM101 or CHEM102
To take the Organic Chemistry Assessment, follow the attached instructions to join the Chemistry Tutorial Center's Blackboard Organization, and then proceed to the test.
NOTE: The Organic Chemistry Assessment has NO BEARING on your grade or standing in Organic Chemistry I. It is intended to be a tool to help students be fully prepared for success in the course.

BIOL 302L: Phage Hunters - Fall 2012 Results Poster Sessions
December 3-6, Schwartz Hall Atrium, Biological Sciences Bldg
From 2008 through 2011, the UMBC Biological Sciences Department participated in the National Genomics Research Initiative's Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science (PHAGES) program, funded by the HHMI's Science Education Alliance. An innovative research experience taught by Mr. James Sandoz and Dr. Steve Caruso, the two-semester course sequence exposed non-STEM-major students to the process of scientific discovery.
In Fall 2012, Phage Hunting came back to UMBC bigger and better than ever. The fall version of Molecular and General Genetics Lab (BIOL 302L) has been modeled after the first half of the original Phage Hunters course sequence. The 80 students enrolled in this class have had the rare and exciting opportunity to engage in genuine, continuous research, rather than participate in the more typical canned labs used in traditional science lab courses.
From Monday, December 3rd, through Thursday, December 6th, Dr. Caruso and his Fall 2012 BIOL 302L class invite the campus community to their poster sessions in the Atrium of Schwartz Hall in the Biological Sciences Building. Participating students and faculty will be on hand to discuss the progress of their work from approximately 1:30 pm until 3:00 pm on each of those days.
Four of the bacteriophages being described in these posters will be sequenced during the winter break, with one or more used for analysis in BIOL 316L - modeled after the second half of the original Phage Hunters course sequence - during Spring 2013.
