Courses
The IDEA Center provides many opportunities and resources to enhance, augment, and provide support for the engineering curriculum at UC San Diego. We offer engaging academic, professional, and technical development and support opportunities to help strengthen students’ abilities inside and outside of the classroom.
Engineering Learning Communities
Engineering Learning Communities are formal study groups that bring engineering students into a supportive environment where they can develop confidence, strengthen study skills, and learn the value of collaborative study. This small academic environment seeks to increase student mastery and motivation by eliminating the intimidating large classes that engineering students experience particularly in the freshman year.
Student Org Support
The IDEA Center is committed to ensuring students find a community of fellow engineering with the similar passions and goals. As such, we provide an array of resources available to engineering student organizations (clubs). Orgs may get apply for project space as well as funding for activities, conferences, and competitions.
