Recent Website Redesigns and Additions
The CITS Web department has recently completed several website redesigns for various schools, departments and organizations at UMB. The websites include CITS website, Campus Center, Nursing School enviRN and USGA. The web department is also working on improving the current School of Social Work and Vocal Tract Visualization Laboratory websites. School of Social Work Field Placement Application
The CITS Web Development department added more features to the School of Social Work Field Placement application. The application is used to place students in the field as part of their course studies and has virtually eliminated all paper work associated with the SSW's field placement program starting with online applications, online access to field placement referrals, mid-term evaluations, and final semester grades and evaluations. The application is used by students, agencies in the tri-state area of Maryland, affiliated field instructors and UMB faculty liaisons. The system allows custom individual online access to each group as a way to interact with the field placement office in real time. Most recently mid-term forms and finals were added as well as the student notebook system which gives quick access to all student information and field placement. The grading and evaluation systems are currently being developed and will be added over the summer. Maryland Technology Innovation & Commercialization
A new state-wide initiative has been developed between several schools in order to create a new website for Maryland Technology Innovation & Commercialization. The CITS Web Department has been working with ORD in order to make improvements to this website. Along with several new website updates, an online system for managing technologies has been developed. This tool enables users to view and research new technologies available by using a comprehensive online search feature using a backend database. Dental School Continuing Education System
The Dental School is committed to the lifelong learning of oral health professionals in Maryland and neighboring states of the Mid-Atlantic Region. In order to fulfill its commitment to lifelong learning, the Continuing Dental Education Program offers participants educational courses which reflect contemporary professional knowledge of direct benefit to the practice community. The objective of the Dental School Continue Education Application is to create a tool where the students can study the courses and take the exams online. Professors can also use this tool to manipulate the Continue Dental Education courses and exams. International Conference on Urban Health (ICUH) Abstract Submission System
In order to assist with the upcoming ICUH conference the CITS Web Department created an abstract submission system that provides people who are interested in having their abstracts presented at the conference with a way to submit them for review and approval. A team of reviewers can sort through the submitted abstracts in order to review them and determine which ones will be used. Counseling Center System
The CITS Web Department is in the process of making a customized system for the Counseling center which will enable them to maintain online scheduling, track patient records, and counseling services, thus making the department 'paperless'. The system will provide the staff with a secure way to look up patient information quickly without needing to search through patient records and files. Careers in Baltimore Healthcare System
We are working on developing an new system that will combine job listings from UMB Human Resources Department, University of Maryland Medical System and the BioPark into one repository. This will make it easier to maintain and track job postings as well as provide job seekers with the ability to look for UMB healthcare related positions all on one website instead of three separate ones. This system may expand to include New Jersey, Philadelphia and Virginia in the future. In order for the University of Maryland website to have a consistent look and feel, navigation, and flow, there are certain templates and standards that should be followed. Please view these web standards when developing websites for the University of Maryland campus. Numerous groups across campus are involved in web tasks, including content creation, design and development, server administration, online course preparation, strategy, and policy. Each of the seven schools and the administrative units are responsible for maintaining the content for their own web pages. Other campus-wide web development is accomplished through a collaborate effort: - Web application development (using Coldfusion), campus-wide web design & development, and server administration are the responsibility of the Center for Information Technology Services Web Development Department.
- The content and design of the UMB homepage, OEA pages, and the web page for the Office of the President are the responsibility of the Office of External Affairs.
