Dr. C receives QM certification for Thermo course design

Dr. Mariajose Castellanos, Undergraduate Program Director and Principal Lecturer, is one of five faculty to earn QM Certification for course design. 

After participating in rigorous peer reviews of their online and hybrid courses, five UMBC faculty earned Quality Matters certification as part of the campus’ Quality Matters Impact (QMI) pilot. In partnership with the Provost’s Office, the QMI pilot launched in Fall 2021 as an extension of the award-winning PIVOT program to recognize exemplary course design. 

Faculty participants received feedback from certified Quality Matters peer reviewers at UMBC and other online learning experts in the QM community.
