Dear Colleagues,

The UC Washington Center (UCDC) provides opportunities for students and
faculty from across the UC system to engage with Washington, DC, through
teaching, research, internships, and public events.

There are several ways you can get involved:

   1.

   *Teach at UCDC*
   <https://ucop.app.box.com/file/2456818691616?s=5s3l7a4tox8ygx8ru9z1j9dncdc0ha0t>
   *.* Any UC Senate faculty member can apply to teach a course in
   Washington, DC.
   2.

   *Host a research intern*
<https://www.ucdc.edu/research-opportunities>*.* Work
   with a UC student on a research project while they participate in UCDC.
   3.

   *Become a UCDC Presidential Faculty Fellow*
   <https://ucdcevents.my.canva.site/pffp>*.* Apply for a fellowship that
   connects UC faculty with policymakers and other leaders in Washington.
   4.

   *Host an event at UCDC*
<https://www.ucdc.edu/faculty-opportunities>*.* Bring
   together scholars, policymakers, practitioners, and community members for
   conversations about your research and issues that matter.
   5.

   *Recommend UCDC to your students*
   <https://www.ucdc.edu/prospective-students>*.* Encourage students to
   spend a quarter or semester in Washington, where they can take courses,
   complete internships, and gain valuable professional experience.

UCDC is a resource for the entire University of California. I encourage you
to explore these opportunities and consider how UCDC might support your
teaching, research, and students.

See you in Washington!
