Description

COLLEGE BOOTCAMP 2025 continues today with some STEM-specific workshops. If you're feeling nervous and want to make sure that you are mentally and physically prepared 

At 12PM we are starting with "The Calm Circuit: Academic Mindfulness for Peak Performance" which will cover key topics such as building an academic stress "battlebox," quick tips for test anxiety, and a review of the mental health resources that UMBC offers!

At 12:30PM we are going deeper into STEM mental prep with "Cardio for the Cortex: Stamina, Strategy, and Study Gains". Ever wondered what it takes to be a scientist?!? It's more than just intelligence -- it's perseverance, curiosity, resilience, embracing your struggles, and so, so much more. CNMS Advising has a plan for developing these skills -- especially how they relate back to your academic performance. Be the scientist you WANT to be! 

All sessions will be hosted in the same WebEx space - just click this link to join at any time you wish! Each session will last 20-25 minutes.

Check back every day this week for more sessions from 12-1PM. We will be wrapping up the week tomorrow when we'll be joined by Dr. Jeff Leips to talk about his on-campus lab and how you can get involved as a research assistant. Then, at 12:30, we'll talk internships and careers!
