myUMBC AI Development

The myUMBC team is excited to explore how artificial intelligence (AI) can make the platform better for students, faculty, and staff, all while ensuring security and privacy. Our first step is improving the search feature, making it easier and quicker for students to find what they need. With AI, we’re aiming to provide fast, accurate answers to common student questions in a secure way.

A key focus is helping students access important personal information—like grades, billing statements, and Retriever Card balances—right from the search bar. This means students can find what they need quickly, without having to dig through the system, while knowing their data is protected.

This is just the beginning! We’re looking at how AI can further improve the myUMBC experience, from academic support to campus life, always keeping privacy and security at the forefront, to create a more efficient and personalized platform for students.
