    <div><span>Booz Allen Hamilton's Central Maryland office is again sponsoring a college technical challenge, and UMBC students are invited to participate. This year's theme is "Who has my phone?"

Some additional details are below:<br></span></div>
    <div><span><em><span>A team registered for the competition can expect to receive the specific details via email on October 1. The Case Competition will be held across several schools, including Rose-Hulman, Georgia Tech, University of Maryland – College Park, University of Maryland – Baltimore County, Loyola, and Johns Hopkins.  In order to prevent teams from having more time to create solutions to the problem, we release the competition details at the same time for everyone. <br><br></span></em><em><span>Additionally, a team in the competition will be expected to submit a presentation that details their approach/solution to a technical problem by October 21. A software solution to the problem is not required but can be included. The winner of the competition will be the most creative and/or innovative solution to the problem, based on judging criteria that will also be made available on October 1.</span></em></span></div>

  <Title>Considering graduate school in a computing field?</Title>

    <p><a href="http://www.cs.umbc.edu/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/holder_small.jpg" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><img alt="UMBC Ph.D. student Robert Holder presents his dissertation research." height="308" src="http://www.cs.umbc.edu/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/holder_small.jpg" width="700" style="max-width: 100%; height: auto;"></a></p>
    <p>The Computing Community Consortium has a new <a href="http://cra.org/ccc/csgs.php" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">web site</a> for undergraduates in computing fields hoping to learn more about doing research, summer research opportunities, and the process for applying to graduate school. The website contains:</p>
    <ul>
    <li>A section on what graduate school in computer science is all about, including frequently asked questions with answers by current graduate students and faculty</li>
    <li>Information, advice, and insights on how to apply to graduate school in computer science including a FAQ by students who have just been through the process as well as faculty</li>
    <li>A set of pages with information on undergraduate research and summer research positions nationwide.</li>
    </ul>
    <p>It's a good resource if you want to get involved in research and/or considering going on to graduate school. If you are interested in grad school and graduating this Spring, now is the time to start thinking about it. A way to start is by talking with your adviser.</p>
