The Department will list M.A.A. and Ph.D. alumni automatically. Undergraduate alumni are listed only at their request. Although our department currently has both the M.A.A. and Ph.D. programs, we have not graduated any Ph.D. students yet as that program started in 2007.

We would love to hear from all alumni and ensure our information is up to date. Please email any corrections or new information directly to atablada@umd.edu. In addition, the department maintains a listserv for UMD M.A.A. and Ph.D. graduates- please email the address above if you'd like to be added.
