Well at Work

We're here for you!

UMD faculty and staff are invaluable to carrying out the mission of our university. The Division of Student Affairs Wellbeing Unit work together to help you live well and be your best in and out of work. 

Wellness at Work matters. Taking an intentional approach to healthful and active living can increase your energy and engagement, boost your mood, sharpen your focus, reduce your stress, and improve your sleep- all helping you feel, think, and perform at your best. 

Wellness

Supporting Active Terps as they live well and thrive 

Wellness is more than health. It is a way of living more fully. It involves taking responsibility for the choices you make each and every day—no matter how small—to take positive actions that fuel your body, engage your mind, and nurture your spirit. It is an intentional approach to healthful and active living that gives you the energy to embrace life and do what matters most to you.

Safety and Wellness

Learn and thrive with RecWell 

At RecWell, we are committed to your safety and well-being. We are also committed to providing education in order to promote the safety and well-being of the greater campus community. In addition to educational safety courses, RecWell Athletic Trainers are available to support students.

Adventure Programs for Veterans

Get Outside with Fellow Veterans

Take a break from academics and paddle, bike, climb, or ski while building social connections with fellow veterans. These collaborative programs between the RecWell Adventure Program, UMD Veteran Student Life, and Team River Runner can introduce you to a new outdoor activity, provide you with a physical challenge, or help you and your family get outside and enjoy the outdoors.

Adventure Program Clinics

The Adventure Program hosts clinics to help Terps learn technical skills and build confidence for adventuring in the outdoors. Learn how to start a campfire, belay at the climbing wall, cook in the backcountry, take care of your bike, roll a kayak, and more. Expand your opportunities for being active in the outdoors and enhance your intellectual wellness by taking the initiative to learn new skills.

Clinics are open to all UMD students, faculty, and staff. Pre-registration with UID is required.
