New myUMBC Answers: AI-Powered Search Bar
Get personalized answers to your searches on myUMBC!
The myUMBC team has been exploring how artificial intelligence (AI) can make the platform better for students, faculty, and staff, all while ensuring security and privacy. We are excited to announce that we are improving the search feature, making it easier and quicker for students to find what they need with AI. This helps provide fast, accurate answers to common student questions.
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 to create a more efficient and personalized platform for students.
Please remember to verify any information before you take action. At this time, please be aware that answers are focused on student-related scenarios. Faculty/Staff-related answers are still in development. If you identify any mistakes, please let us know using the “Was this useful” feature at the bottom of each answer.
