ICARE NRT Master's Degree Program now accepting applications
National Science Foundation Research Training - FALL 2021
The ICARE NRT Master’s Degree Program in community-engaged environmental science and social justice is now accepting applications. ICARE supports students performing research focused on improving the health of Baltimore Harbor as a socioecosystem. For best consideration, please complete the online application process by January 1, 2021!
ICARE is a 2-year master’s degree that you will receive from one of five departments or programs at UMBC, so you will submit two applications:
- Graduate School application for the department or program of your preferred faculty mentor.
- ICARE program specific application
Note, however, that departments/programs may have their own, unique deadlines.
Environmental Engineering Master's Program application is due January 1, 2021.
The ICARE program will begin reviewing applicants after January 1, 2021. Also worth noting is that the ICARE program will be running for the next 5 years, and plans to train 3 cohorts of students, earning degrees in 2023, 2024, and 2025.
Please browse the ICARE website for links to potential UMBC faculty mentors (All Environmental Engineering, ENEN, Faculty are potential faculty mentors), their research interests, potential thesis projects (more coming soon!), and other helpful information, including the application portal.
ICARE looks forward to hearing from you!
