The General Campus Travel Grants program at UC San Diego, administered by the Academic Senate, offers supplemental funding to support economy-class airfare for faculty on the General Campus who are presenting scholarly or creative work at major national and international conferences or symposia. The program encourages broad disciplinary participation—including arts and humanities, social and behavioral sciences, engineering, and physical sciences—by offsetting the travel costs associated with presenting papers, posters, performances, or exhibitions. The initiative aims to foster faculty engagement and the dissemination of research and creative achievements in significant academic and creative forums.
