A central, open academic book serves as the foundation for a golden-yellow and black graphic titled "DECODING GRADUATE SCHOOL: THE COMPLETE SERIES." From the pages of the book, a stylized golden skyline of UMBC and a circuit-board pattern emerge, symbolizing growth and technical expertise. A large golden key with a magnifying glass as its handle is positioned vertically in the center, framing a puzzle-piece icon that represents the "decoding" of complex information. The entire design is set against a circular yellow backdrop with gear icons, emphasizing a structured and mechanical approach to academic success.
