Whether you are just exploring the option of further study at UC, or actively applying, Continue the Journey is a useful resource. This publication provides essential information about graduate study at the University of California, including the graduate admissions process, financial support options, campus life, student experiences, and the degree programs offered at each UC campus. Continue the Journey also provides information on UC's summer research internship programs. The summer research programs provide students with the opportunity to gain first-hand experience conducting research. Many of the programs provide additional enrichment opportunities, including preparation for the Graduate Record Examinations (GRE). UC LEADS is a comprehensive two-year program designed to prepare economically or educationally disadvantaged students for success in doctoral degree programs in science, engineering, technology, or mathematics. Students are assigned individual faculty mentors, who guide them in academic year and summer research experiences. Scholars receive stipends and housing for their summer research and participate in extensive academic enrichment activities, including presenting their research at the annual UC LEADS Symposium. |
