A new study led by UC Santa Cruz geologist Noah Finnegan finds that conditions known to cause slip along fault lines deep underground also lead to landslides above.
The Science Division has received a $1 million donation to begin a major new program on “degree-defining experiences.” The program will pilot 17 projects across campus that aim to profoundly inspire undergraduate students and fill them with the kind of optimism that forever changes how they see their time at UC Santa Cruz and their future careers.
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded nearly $1 million to researchers at UC Santa Cruz to advance equity and inclusion by fostering a more inclusive, culturally rich environment in STEM graduate programs.
Giving Day is a 24-hour fundraising event supporting students, organizations, research, resources, and more at UC Santa Cruz. The biggest day of giving is powered by matches and challenges to incentivize participation and rewards teams on the number of donors, best social media presence, and more.
