About

The Cal-Bridge program (calbridge.org) has the mission of creating opportunities for traditionally underrepresented groups to participate and advance in physics, astronomy, computer science, and computer engineering and to increase their numbers in PhD programs in those fields. Cal-Bridge consists of two programs: a CSU-UC PhD Bridge program and a summer research program.
