The Intercampus Exchange Program, administered by UC San Diego’s General Campus Research Grant Committee, provides travel support for research and research-specific collaborations at other University of California campuses and facilities. The fiscal year 2027/28 program supports UC San Diego Academic Senate members and registered graduate students through block grants awarded to academic departments, which administer the travel funds.
The program is specifically for conducting research or collaborating on a research project within the UC system, rather than general academic or professional travel. Attendance at conferences, scholarly society meetings, business meetings, invited talks, and seminar presentations is excluded. Each supported trip must have a documented research component.
