ENTS Graduate Handbook

Message from the Program Office

Greetings, and welcome to the Master’s in Telecommunications Program at the University of Maryland! We are excited for another successful year and look forward to assisting you in your academic career.

The Program Office would like to emphasize several things that will help you progress through your graduate studies. First, you should subscribe to the ents-students listserv. To sign-up, send an email to listserv@listserv.umd.edu with the message “subscribe ents-students” <Your Name>” in the body of the email. The listserv is our primary method for disseminating important information to students.

Next, you should carefully read emails that you receive from us via the listserv. If you need clarification, feel free to talk one-on-one with our dedicated staff. We are always looking for the most effective ways to communicate policies, information, and deadlines to you, so please take advantage of all forms of communication with us. And, if at any point you have any questions, email us at telecomprogram@umd.edu

Also, for students who are seeking a well-rounded experience, we are happy to talk with you about various aspects of graduate student life. We can direct you to resources that may help you achieve a work-life balance. We want you to know that you are a part of a community here that is both close-knit and connected to broader areas such as the University and metropolitan D.C.

Lastly, the Program Office encourages you to take responsibility for your own success. One way to do this is to consult this Handbook as well as the Graduate Catalog and, if you are an international student, the International Student and Scholar Services office (ISSS) for information on policies, procedures, and requirements.
