Research at the UC

The Undergraduate Research Opportunities Center (UROC) at UC Merced was established with a mission to encourage and facilitate faculty- mentored undergraduate research projects and creative activities across all schools and academic disciplines. UC Merced Resources for Undocumented Students Services for Undocumented Students is committed to empowering undocumented students to achieve their academic, professional and personal goals. Through collaborations within the campus and the Merced community, we aim to provide a safe and inclusive environment for all undocumented students.

Plan for Success After Transfer

SSB 120

There is a noticeable difference between community college and a four-year university. This workshop will outline the expectations, opportunities and changes that can be expected in a four-year university setting, and share resources that can help enhance students’ career goals and university experience.

Staying Motivated Through Transitions

SSB 130

Learning how to accept and adapt to change in a short amount of time is critical in having success, but it can put a lot of stress on a student. Having coping skills, a strong support circle and the ability to communicate needs is just as critical as academic learning itself. Transfer, Returning, and Veteran Program (TRV) Student Panel The Transfer, Returning and Veteran (TRV) program is a supportive community for transfer, reinstated and veteran students. We accomplish our mission by offering career development services, academic support services and a community of engagement.
