Welcome to ICARE at UMBC!
ICARE is the “Interdisciplinary Consortium for Applied Research in the Environment.” Our program is a cross-sector network of environmental scientists and engineers who are committed to engaging students and communities in environmental research in and around Baltimore Harbor. We consist of five departments at UMBC:
- Department of Biological Sciences
- Chemical, Biochemical and Environmental Engineering (CBEE)
- Geography and Environmental Systems (GES)
- The cross-campus Marine Estuarine Environmental Sciences (MEES) / IMET – Education
- The School of Public Policy
NSF funding for the ICARE Master’s Program ends in August 2025, but ICARE’s network of faculty and adjacent programs is still fully active! We recommend contacting individual ICARE faculty or ICARE’s constituent departments as they may have related graduate openings.
Deadlines for ICARE-affiliated departments and programs can be found under Application Information and under News.
