UC Santa Barbara’s Graduate Division provides numerous resources for graduate students from all departments on campus, including:
GradPost
The GradPost is the digital outpost of the Graduate Student Resource Center and serves as the primary source for news, funding, professional development, advice, events, and more related to graduate student life at UC Santa Barbara.
Graduate Student Resource Center
Located on the first floor of the Student Resource Building (Room 1215), the GSRC is a resource for graduate students seeking help with many aspects of graduate student life. Students can meet with two dedicated Diversity Peers as well as other specialists providing help for career placement, writing and editing, and funding graduate school.
