2024 Fall semester is off to a great start with new graduate students gathering for orientation, connecting across diverse specialties and backgrounds, hearing from inspiring faculty, getting involved in a lively resource fair and, of course, enjoying ice cream! 

Tia Cunningham is passionate about supporting students in all the ways – how they connect, how they belong and how they grow beyond UMD into meaningful careers.

COLLEGE PARK, Md. – Who hasn’t sat in a medical office, listening to computer keys clacking while their provider rapidly types up notes, wondering what they are spending so much time writing about? For doctors, who have always written clinical care notes but increasingly must spend time cataloging billing details, this additional documentation is a major source of job dissatisfaction and burnout.

Two students from the UMD School of Public Health were selected as 2024-25 ambassadors in the “This is Public Health” (TIPH) program, hosted by the Association of Schools & Programs of Public Health (ASPPH).

Dr. Jennifer Bachner, an expert in health data analytics, instructional technology and more, has joined the University of Maryland School of Public Health as its associate dean of academic affairs.

Congratulations to SPH faculty and staff who received annual awards honoring outstanding teaching, public health practice, service, mentoring and commitment to the school’s success and community during the 2023-2024 academic year!
