Beckman Scholars Program at the University of California, Santa Barbara

Funded by the Arnold and Mabel Beckman Foundation, the Beckman Scholars Program at UCSB seeks to foster the next generation of creative thinkers by stimulating, encouraging, and supporting research by outstanding undergraduates who have demonstrated the desire and potential for becoming future scientific leaders.

Scholars embark on a 15-month program designed to enrich their development as students and scientists through innovative research, mentoring, collaboration, and practice in effective communication. The program offers students a unique opportunity to become immersed in the broader scientific community.
