Stay Informed & Connected

The Student Engagement Opportunities unit in the Biology Student & Instructional Services office provides info sessions, workshops, events, and resources that enhance students experiences while at UC San Diego. The links below help keep students up-to-date on events within the division and across campus.

Biology Student Engagement Opportunities Newsletter

This is a weekly e-newsletter emailed during the academic year to all registered biology majors and individuals interested in biology related news. This will be the primary method of communicating event announcements, program deadlines, and opportunities relevant to biology students at UC San Diego. Students will continue to receive separate email notices to your UCSD email account about academic announcements (e.g. academic deadlines, major requirement updates, or course changes).
