CATALOG 2009 2010 Graduate School of Management and Technology CATALOG 2009 2010 Graduate School of Management and Technology www.umuc.edu ( UMUC In Maryland and Around the World At University of Maryland University College (UMUC), a high-quality education is always within reach. UMUC is dedicated to offering on-site and online courses and resources to adult students in Maryland and around the world. Under contract to the U.S. Department of Defense, UMUC is one of the largest providers of education to the U.S. military worldwide and serves 36,000 active-duty military servicemembers. With more than 150 worldwide locations and 110 undergraduate and graduate degree and certificate programs offered entirely online, UMUC makes it possible to earn a widely respected degree from just about anywhere. UMUC’s commitment to students around the globe extends far beyond providing access to excellent degree programs. An online academic and administrative services portal, MyUMUC, makes it simple for students to register for courses, pay tuition, and order textbooks and other supplies when it’s convenient for them. Students can also access academic and career advising, financial aid counseling, library services, and much more online via the university’s Web site or by phone or e-mail.

Students should keep their catalog available for easy reference throughout their degree program. From the Dean Welcome to the University of Maryland University College (UMUC) Graduate School of Management and Technology. As this catalog goes to press, the world is just starting to emerge from an eco­ nomic crisis, the likes of which hasn’t been seen since the Great Depression. The United States and many other countries around the world have been affected. And as a global university, UMUC has marshaled its resources to help our students wherever they live, work, and study. Education will play a major role in the economic recovery by provid­ ing new knowledge and skills that will allow many adult learners to become more valuable to their employers, and thereby not only sur­ vive the downturn but also advance their careers. Many others will find renewed opportunities by moving into career disciplines that are projected to experience exponential growth in the coming decade. Whichever scenario is motivating you to pursue your graduate-level education, you can be sure that you’ll have the full support of the UMUC faculty and staff. So please keep this catalog for future reference and use it as your guide throughout your studies at UMUC.

In subsequent centuries, alma took on the additional meaning of soul/spirit in Italian, Birthday Corner Spanish and Portuguese. Perhaps, then it is not too much to translate Alma Mater as August Mother of Souls or Spirit Mother. 20 Fr.
